whtractors24 3,351 #1 Posted January 22, 2016 I picked up this 753 which had all the goodies on it! It ran ok. the 2 piece tank of course leaked pretty bad and so did the hy-2 hydraulics. It was in good shape besides the hood was mangled. The day I picked it up 1st thing I did was yank the tank off and replace 2 piece tank seal with Ron Greco reproduction seal and got it to seal 1st time around thank god 2 piece tank is a good and bad idea good cause they are aluminum and don't rust bad cause its a leak point! This is after the 1st stage of buffing This after I polished the original paint with a buffer it came out to nice to fully tear it apart so I left it ! 12 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
