What are you going to name this one ?  Since I know nothing about a 953 what is the do hickey on the back of the seat pan?

:text-coolphotos:                 Welcome to the club!      You done goooooood!     Very complete and in nice condition,           :woohoo:  

I don't recall ever seeing a 953 with the long Hein-Warner pump and the wart on the side panel though I have heard of them.

If you make it down here next year you can check it out. Ill post more about it when I get it home next month. Plans for this one is for a restore. Wife’s 1054 will get the custom touch. This one I would like to leave stock. :laughing-rolling:

Not sure about a name. Looks like a  “Fred” 😁 The rear socket is just that, a tail light socket but he couldn’t find the lense. Put it where he wouldn’t lose it...... been there :laughing-rolling:

All the time!! Man oh man, if I had a nickel for every time I'd put something down where I thought I wasn't going to lose it. No way I wouldn't be rich and retired right now in my late forties.

I have a big load of stuff in my shed that I put down and can't find. I think Fred would be a excellent name. Ha ha

Road trip! Going to pick it up. Have my trusty cohorts along with me for the ride.

funny timing too because the man I bought it from messaged me and said he found the tail light lense. 👍

Thank you Sir! Made it there in good shape. Half the battle. Had trailer wiring issues so had to leave it home. Glad it will fit in the truck but now I have to get it in there. :D

Find a ditch you can back down into, drop the tail gate and drive it in the box. 

 

Easy peasy :ychain:

Yeah pretty much what I had planned. He has an enclosed trailer we are going to put it in and then put his ramp on my tailgate and push away. :handgestures-thumbup:
