OK, WELL, NOW LET'S SEE IF I DID THIS RIGHT! SHE'S ALMOST DONE, BEEN PLOWING SNOW WITH HER!! After taking this C from a greasy pile metal in front and a rusty pile of parts in back, I got her back on her feet. I did a few minor changes from the original, to include 12 volt and 3 Pt. hitch conversions.
