19richie66 17,508 #78 Posted April 1, 2020 (edited) Yes. Start a thread on it so it doesn’t get lost in the shuffle. It’s nice to be able to do a search and find all the pictures/information. I’ll be looking forward to it. 👍 Edited April 1, 2020 by 19richie66 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
19richie66 17,508 #79 Posted June 5, 2020 Tool tray is tacked up and fits great. Will get fully welded next week. I want to get this one going soon. 9 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
19richie66 17,508 #80 Posted June 9, 2020 Storage tray done. My son even had it powder coated. Turned out great. Shame to put a seat over it. 1 6 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pullstart 62,922 #81 Posted June 10, 2020 Excellent, Richie! Having three 953/1054’s in the stable now... these ideas are perfect! 1 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PeacemakerJack 10,738 #82 Posted June 10, 2020 Richie...that is a thing of beauty! That will work great to keep some odds and ends (tools, hitch pins, etc) in a more secure area and it looks great too. I like these two custom mods (tank and box) for sure.👍🏻 Pass along the “atta boy” to your son for another job well done! 2 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

19richie66 17,508 #84 Posted February 27, 2021 It’s alive!! Finally had a chance to work on it. Removed all the hanging wires and stuff not needed and found out it has a 1989 engine in it that apparently was a recoil engine converted to starter/generator. It has no external coil and a pushbutton stop on the points cover. Once the oil burnt off the muffler it doesn’t smoke a bit. Took it for a ride to check the mail and it passed the test. Thanks @scottbrucea for letting me adopt this machine. 👍 4 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pullstart 62,922 #86 Posted February 28, 2021 Starts in a snap too! Nice work Richie, I love that fuel tank mod you did! 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
19richie66 17,508 #87 Posted February 28, 2021 It fires right up. Surprised me how litle effort it took to get going. Fuel tank works great and transmission service should be a snap 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
