I love to resurrect old things, and here is one of those old things just in time for the snow to fly.


I just got done putting the new engine on this single stage snow blower, and MAN I am liking the way it picks up and goes. The funnest part of my hobby is, to me, naming my toys. I call this one 'lil Stain', since it peed a little on my driveway (you can see it in the background) while I was working on it
Although you can't read the main plate behind the chute tiller, it says 'Moto-Mower' .
It was apparently made in Indiana and is about as old as me, if not older. I'm hoping to get some real snow throwing action out of it come the winter .
Some of the other old wrecks I've rehabbed can be found here http://home.comcast.net/~rdbar814/mi_snowblower.html
The Craftsman listed there was named 'the Beast', and it finally kicked the bucket when its rear axle snapped into so many pieces that all the kings horses and all the kings men couldn't have put it back together again. It sure took me by surprise
since that thing is REALLY heavy duty.
The two wheel tractor you see there got no name, unfortunately, as its byline states, was stolen shortly after the 2 years I put into rehabbing it which really steamed me up
It has been gone almost 2 years now, but I still think if I ever find the guy that took it for sure, I'd like to help him out on his way , i.e.
So what all hobbies do you have ?

If a little knowledge is dangerous, I'm probably lethal on a GLOBAL scale !
