Very nice Ebay purchase! Update, pics added!

I noticed a nice looking RJ58? or RJ59? Wheel Horse Snow Plow as the seller called it, on Ebay last week. It was for a 1960 or 1961 WH Suburban though. It was only about 15 or 20 minutes from my house so I figured I would bid on it at the end which was in 2 days. It had an opening bid of $50.00 and a Buy It Now price of $80.00! I kept on surfing and figured out that I had better just buy it now and forget it. So I did and went to get it on Saturday. It is in great shape and hardly even used at all. The 2 feet it slides on are in great shape with hardly any wear and the bottom of the blade is the same way! They all could have been replaced over the years but they look pretty old to me. The seller said he never used it one time in the 10 years he has owned it along with the tractor it came with. He didn't know what year he had but thought it was a 1961 so I asked about the throttle and choke knob locations and he said they were 2 levers that were close together with a silver Id plate in between. Bingo, you have a 1960 and he said it had a 4 hp Kohler on it, so it was a 400. I asked if he wanted to sell the tractor and he said no way! Dang! But this nice unit will go on a nice original condition Suburban that I have waiting! Not bad for that price! KJ
