prondzy 3,867 #1 Posted June 3, 2018 I aquired this tractor 2 weeks ago weather was finally nice enough to get some glamour shots. Runs ok, its going to need an engine rebuild this winter, came with rear split weights. Going to leave it in its barn dust for now!

KC9KAS 4,741 #6 Posted June 3, 2018 Nice....You know, very few of these models ever have the seat back on them. Must have been the weak point of this model. I like the patina of it! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
953 nut 51,769 #7 Posted June 3, 2018 You can get a nice new seat for it at the Big Show, @BOB ELLISON will be selling them and I can assure you they are nice. Here is one on my 953 barn find. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
953 nut 51,769 #8 Posted June 3, 2018 I have had this well patinaed 953 for about 20 years and love it just as it sits. I have others that have been or will be painted but this one will stay as is as long as I own it. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Exhaust 25 #12 Posted June 4, 2018 I love the barn color finish as well, looks too good to paint over that. The hood and flared fenders are a fine shape for that model! I hope a 1054 doesn't show up on craigslist any time soon cause I might need to go see it. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
