[AT] Snow Blower

[Mike Sloane]

I was only referencing rear mounted blowers. I did sell a 10' front 
mounted blower attached to a big New Holland 4WD tractor with heated 
cab. The buyer owned a truck terminal that had to be kept cleared around 
the clock in all kinds of weather. I was seriously envious of that 
machine, as I clear two miles of private lane in the winter. (I could 
not afford anything like that, but the commission on the sale was 
welcome. :-) )

I took a picture of the machine just before loading it up for delivery, 
and you can see it at
