Yes you can. Fold the back down first.

It will fit

No folding necessary

Remove the seat cushions first

Thank you


I should add mine is a 50
Not sure if the 53 seat frame is the same dimensions as 50

You should have no problems

The seat was made wider in 1950.
1953 should be the same as 1950.

Not foldable, but it comes in and out without door removal.
