Some clean up pictures. No Case or John Deere was used or harmed in this selection of pictures. Hehe.
Heated seat I put in the Ford with cab worked great. Took an hour to do that.

:rolleyes: Looks like that blue tractor is doing a good job.

I got a little seat time on my blue tractor too. Had to go "up north" to check on the cabin and clean out the driveway. Haven't been there since end of November. :112: The drive was knee deep. A little deeper by the road. :O The blower is 28" tall

Looks like you had some high winds there too . Saw the video . The old Ford works pretty good . I have client that has one with the Johnson factory installed loader I repowered it with a Kohler 18hp Magnum HOP Twin . Whats in yours?

Looks like fun Tim. Would be nice to have a chute like that on our snowcasters.

Noel - Can you post the video?

We got 6-8" of heavy wet snow yesterday. My daughter lily rode in the cab and assisted with the Berco's electric chute controls.

It’s a LGT 165 Ford. It’s has a Kohler K341 16 hp. I’m not sure if it’s the original engine, but that’s what’s suppose to be in it when new.
How many times I thought, wouldn't it have been nice to own it when it was new. !

I don’t think I can. The site doesn’t host videos I don’t think. And I’m not sure how to do that. I not real computer wise. Sorry.

I saw your video on facebook Noel, very nice!

To be fair, the sister site doesn't host videos either. The disadvantage of putting your videos in a group on facebook is that only people with Facebook accounts and part of the group can see them. This is why most people put their videos on YouTube

Maybe I'll create a little tutorial how to upload a video to YouTube and post the link here.

That is the correct engine for that tractor . It is the exact same machine as my clients . He has an old school barn and a skid steer is to tall to much out the barn but the little ford does it with ease . I made a manure bucket for him out of parts and pieces he brought me . He told me that it is greatest little tractor for those little tight areas you can't get a farm tractor . From what I have seen it looks like the Cab is a factor accessory as well .

I like the 70's iron . There was alot of great machine built back then . You can tell witch ones were the best as there still in use today.
