Speed plowing vids: ,

Had to get a new computer about four months ago, came with Win10, still miss my old one that had Win 7.

Aye, laddie!

They had big roofs for shade, once they fired one of those tractors up, they would run them all day. It took a bit of work to get one of them running, especially the steamers.

They also came in 3hp and 6hp versions too.

I think they are designed that way for high wind gust areas, the vanes will "fold" instead of spinning too fast and possibly burning up the bearings.

They are definitely ring pliers of some type.

It mostly came from the west, but it would change up at odd times, good thing my blower tractor had a cab on it!

Two things I learned about blowing snow in SD, keep the blower chute pointed low and blow in the same direction the wind is blowing!

Some did have a small wheel. also a small "knife" in front of the plow, especially if the plow was a breaking plow, which tend to be bigger and/or heavier than a standard plow.

The age could vary, Deere sold horse drawn plows up to the early-mid forties.

Definitely a horse drawn plow, only missing the clevis and handles.

Looks like the old McCormick Deering colors.

With the JD's, the 110.112.120 and 140 tractors had the small fuel tank mounted above the carburetor, so no pump needed. All the other ones had tanks under the fender decks, so they used fuel pumps.

Doug, the very early first year 140's came with a K301 12hp, they quickly switched to K321's, and had them to the end of the production run.

Sounds good!

Is it time for a intervention Doug? LOL!

That's the type to look for. They fit a little snug, but you don't have to worry about rust!

Basically any older snow blower that have a teccy engine on them, about 7hp and higher. There are short tanks and long ones, the long ones are the ones to look for. They usually have a mounting bracket that is bolted to the top of the tanks, which have threaded inserts.

Doug, one thing I have done with my 110 and two 112's is to replace the metal fuel tanks with plastic ones from older snowblowers, like JD ones from the seventies and eighties (ie 726, 1032, etc), they fit right in the same place the metal ones do.
