well here are pics i promised. upon further inspection i found that the carb seems to be rebuilt, it has new gas lines, new fuel pump, and seems the gas tank has been flushed. it does turn over and have compression:) i just have to rewire it and try to fire it up.

i think that serial number is 62-831. i dont think there is enough space for a 4th digit and i can see just the start of a 1 right where the decal ends......

Looks like a great project is soon to begin! Nice find! Quite a few nice Horses in Pennsy.

The early bird does catch the worm!

Be sure to post pic's during your progress. Thanks in advance. :)

Very nice tractor! :bow-blue: Hoping I can find a 953 or 1054 this year, always wanted one but never found near me that I could afford. :banghead:

Looks like it is good restore shape. Mine had more rust and no deck. Good luck on that one! Don't forget to update pics as you get it done.
