You would not even be able to see the top of the picnic table in the middle "outdoors" pic if it was at my house. You need any snow? I can send you some..cheap!
:lol: Ed, we did not even get snow here in the valley this winter....actually would have liked to, as now the mosquito's are thick!

There is about 26" in the woods at my house where drifts are a non-factor. I took my oldest daughter out back sledding last weekend, and we were walking over the tops of some pines that I know are about 4' high, and only about 6" was sticking out of the snow. This was out in an open area however, so it's all drifted in. I will see what I can do about getting a few truckloads of snow shipped out to you!  :D

well, after a little break to sandblast the frame, and gather some more parts and pieces, i am on to re-assembly:


front end assembled



shot of bearing under chassis at steering column



brake master and pedal....linkage is shifter linkage from some other mower, worked out great.


clutch pedal assembly and linkage.


front steering components in relation to the grill.


trans in.


took the stock drive sprocket, and welded a new sprocket on...i did 2 of them, 1 is 14 tooth, and other is 15 tooth.


homemade spring tensioner set-up.


rear bumper.



rear view with rear fender on.



side views.



steering full left and full right.


sprocket/chain guard.


diamond plate dash pieces to cover factory holes from controls....1 each side.



and my engine shroud....i love this one!

well, that's it for now, i need to get a few more things together, and have yet to complete the engine....but it's close. will post final assembly pics in the next couple weeks.
