I found this nice shinny old 953 ( A model?) down the road from my house. There was another newer 953 as well but i couldn't get a good shot.

Thanks for the pics.When you resize them be sure to maintain the aspect ratio and the result won't look all squeezed up like yours do.There should be a box to click in your software that will insure that the results are proportional no matter what size you end up with.Keep them coming:))Ron G

Hi Guys,
I just found this forum in looking for information on Cat 953b. I am not a driver or operator but a model builder and wish to build a working model of a 953b. I have some nice exterior photos but hardly any of cab interior. In particular am interested in shots of panel in front of driver. I also have been looking for an operators manual to help with images of the cab interior. My late father drove CASE, FIAT and CAT track loaders many years ago hence my interest in these lovely machines. Any help would be much appreciated.

Hi BigBlueOx.
Thanks for the photos 0 and the thought.

For future re-sizing of single photos, try opening the photo with Microsoft Office Picture Manager, select, Picture, Resize, then go to the menu that opens on the right of your screen and select, Predetermined Width And Height. Click on the menu arrow in that window and select, Web Large - 640 x 480 from the menu, click O.K. at the bottom, then File and Save if you only want to save that photo in its new size.

(640 x 480 fits within the guidelines for posting photos on this site and also usually keeps the aspect ratio intact so that your photos don't get 'squished' out of shape.)

If you want to save that file as a new file and thus keep the original as is, select, Save As, and give the new file a new name that you will recognise as being the smaller version of the original.

Hope this helps
