I recently came into possession of this bandsaw. The brand is Builders and model, serial number, and manufacture year on shown in the images (click to enlarge). I can't find anything online regarding this brand. Any help is appreciated.

I believe it is a generic tool copied from the Delta/Rockwell 14" bandsaws as Ecnerwal mentioned in a comment. It appears that similar/identical Taiwan-made saws were sold under the brand names IMS (and another); King Feng Fu; Foremost Machinery; and others, including Builders it would seem!
Highland Woodworking offers these rollers for "Taiwan Saws" which supports "Taiwanese 14 inch bandsaw" as a species of tool.
Reading over these linked threads, it seems "Taiwan Bandsaws" often use 92½"-long blades, which are harder to find in retail stores than 93½"-long blades, but which can be found online. Also seems replacement parts marked for Delta or Rockwell 14" saws may or may not fit, depending on your particular specimen of saw.
