The 953 I believe

You got a complete set of sheet metal. What you are missing to hold up the rear fenders is the top link adapter and struts that hold up the sheet metal on the GT-14. The top link adapter # 8) bolts to the top of the transmission so an adapter plate will need to be made unless you are running the Sundstrand transaxle from a GT-14. You need to obtain or replicate part # 8 that attaches to the transmission and struts # 11 and 12 and you will need to fabricate a means of attachment for these struts along each side of the of the steering/dash tower.

So the parts that were in the listing included parts 13 14. Making those struts won't be an issue. And when the box arrived 13 and 14 were not in the box.

Here is what parts 8, 11 and 12 look like when installed. This is on a GT-14 with an Eaton 1100 transaxle.

Thank you! I still haven't identified the transaxle I've installed I'll be sure to do so this weekend. It is also leaking pretty good from the brake hub.

The axles need to extend about 5" from the transaxle housing to use the 953 hubs and rims. The axles and differential from the 953 will fit into any six speed or eight speed Transaxle with 1 1/8" axles.

While I have the fenders off the GT-14 I can measure up # 13 and # 14. Simple enough to make if you have access to a sheet metal brake. I didn't notice they were missing in your photos.

So the tires came fast like super fast and changing them off the rim was incredibly easy! Still waiting on foot rests and inner fender supports should be here by the weekend.20230411_211505.jpg.d2b6f720f012c9010f1970151cc05219.jpg20230411_211525.jpg.8e860080d8759ae091583738cccd312f.jpg

Fenders are on!! I believe i would have clearance issues since i went stupid width on the tires with those GT14 supports so i built a frame today to hold the fenders. So I can still incorporate the fuel tank from the C125 with this design and fill it with water or fuel. I would need to put on a transfer pump to use it tho 🤔. Don't know what to do yet but she needs to gain weight now!!! Need to make a seat bracket now im thinking a sprung flip up...20230415_204213.jpg.0d66fbb9a9cfef2a2d56495f623a5f96.jpg20230415_204217.jpg.2c99e8a1b187dce6eb39f6c12ec95b94.jpg20230415_204230.jpg.07d3872ed47eba22262c934a6d65c80a.jpg20230415_085631.jpg.ce8b1b4a2624deb0166cb37418e22635.jpg20230415_122547.jpg.9e8456572ed97b3b4b4bb9b6192a202f.jpg20230415_191341.jpg.1ac0d04edfe3819e8dc5c4c04249e673.jpg20230415_191307.jpg.9830a286680097309fdfe1c6dc35b72f.jpg
