octfst 378 #1 Posted April 26, 2015 (edited) My wish list is very short But a 754 was on the short list. Never really thought I could get one. But you never know right. Last Sept. a friend of mine said he had one he was thinking of selling. I told him I wanted it. So then from the guy who bought it. I found out he bought it a couple of years ago. Do to my friends age I figure he for got about selling it. Along comes last Saturday he says I'm ready to sell that 754. Ok when can I come & get it? So on Monday before I leave I call. He says I'm sorry I must of sold it. That's ok I kinda knew this. Then a couple days later one shows up on Facebook. It's in my garage now.

stevebo-(Moderator) 8,330 #2 Posted April 26, 2015 I do not have too many left on my bucket list but the elusive 754 is on mine too. Really sweet find for sure. Is the lift block under the seat original or added to this one? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

WheelHorse79 271 #7 Posted April 27, 2015 (edited) Real nice 754! Could you please tell us the serial number of your 754? Someone on this board is tracking them. I believe there were only about 400 or so made in the Spring of '64. Edited April 27, 2015 by WheelHorse79 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
