Finally got to play with the snowblower!!

We finally got enough snow to break out the tractor. That old horse ('74 C-120 8 speed) blasts snow like a champ! I wondered about the single stage blowers ability, but all doubts have been removed. That 12hp Kohler loves to be loaded up too! It'll be awesome when I do the upgrade to the M20... can't wait.

Love my old tractor... it's my favorite tool in the shed. My wife thought I was crazy when I picked it up last summer, but even she is impressed. Still trying to convince her that I need another one.

Shouldn't be too hard to do, just say it's for her. :)

Woohoo! Another snow storm, and more playing with the horse... would it be OK to call it a pony? My photographer wasn't napping this time.

Definately gonna need to do something with the chute crank this summer. Can't seem to get the wrapping thingy right. I will be looking to replace it with a gear mechanism and taller chute.

I could take some close up pics if you like, but its an off-the-shelf

Not a bad cab, but the front shield lines up nicely with the PTO/flywheel screen. The black bar just above the steering wheel is it rolled up and zap-strapped. I also have the sides rolled up as the cover didn't fit well enough to use the zippers. It does keep the snow from blowing back into my face, but I will be looking at another solution for next winter. Scored a whole bunch of 3/4"OD thick walled round tubing. (Also gonna use that as an excuse to buy a hydraulic pipe bender.)

If you want some pics though, I will endeavor to shoot some.
