joel_400 59 #1 Posted July 21, 2012 Just picked up a 953 today. Got it running, needs a carb job and new fuel line, but runs ok. Serial number 62-379. Any body got any ideas what I should do with it!? Haha joel 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ol550 830 #2 Posted July 21, 2012 Looks like it needs a hood and a blanket too. Might contact Martin, he has a blanket he's not using. :ROTF: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
joel_400 59 #3 Posted July 21, 2012 I have the hood just didnt put it back on yet cuz its boogered up a bit. Bottom of the seat was the only thing missing. Oh and one head lite lens. Other than that its real solid joel Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
refracman 167 #4 Posted July 22, 2012 Not to bad lookin, even has the complete original steering wheel. Look up Glenn under the vendors he repops the lense and get hold of Carl if you want a seat. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hammerhead 817 #7 Posted July 22, 2012 Nice early production 953 with the rarest steering wheel WH ever made! This is by far the hardest type of steering wheel to find on a WH. They only made them a few months before they sold so many 953's that they couldn't supply enough steering wheels to keep up. The center peice is super rare, I've seen 2 in my life, one on Redsquare(missing the center peice) and one on Ebay years ago. I have one on the parts shelf and that is it. Good find and don't let nothing happen to that rare peice if WH history! KJ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JUSS10 250 #9 Posted July 23, 2012 well if you don't know what to do with it I'll take it off your hands... Is it me or has there been a lot of 953/1054s popping up lately?... Maybe I'll get lucky and can get my hands on a 953... would love to add an early model like this to the collection!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
