Built a 3point and plow for my Farmall M

Well, we have a Ford 640 Utility tractor on our farm that we usually use to plow the snow with, and smaller work around the farm, but recently last week we had a small fire with it, and havn't got around to fixing it yet. Got word yesterday that we were getting hit with 10-12 inches of snow today. So with a little cutting, welding, and fabbing I got a plow made and rigged up to the back of my 46 M. I mounted a hydraulic cylinder on the rear end cover, next to the seat, so I can raise and lower it. It seems to work pretty good so far. I came in for a break from plowing the lane, and the horse track, and figured I'd post a couple pictures from earlier. I'll take some more detailed ones, once it's not covered in snow.

Over all it didn't turn out bad for a last minute deal.

Yep, I would like to see some more pictures, particularly the cylinder mounting.

I am doing something similar with a W-400 by installing a fast hitch. My cylinder is down in one of the foot pockets after rejecting the horizontal placement on the rear frame lid. It was too close to the clutch pedal. I'll have pictures in a couple of weeks.
