I used to plow snow with my case 310b that I built an 8 ft. blade with hydraulic control, I had 4 ft. wide canvass cat tarps from the front to back of the fenders and across the back. thick sorel boots, heavy skidoo suit, balaclava, thick mitts. I plowed our acerage and 6 others in the area, up to 6 hours out there. what used to shut me down was my back got cold, in 2008 I bought a case 1845c skidsteer, built a front door with wiper, plexiglassed the sides and back window, installed 2 big heaters one up behind me on the engine housing and one on the floor by my feet, picked up an hla 6 way 8 ft. blade for it and can cruise along in my shirt and jeans in -30 or -40 with a wind blowing no problem. my 310b and my 2 m5's are open station and will stay that way as I like the visability, being able to see what ever I'm pulling and hear if anything starts banging or breaking.

This story is about the day my Grandfather Brown (true name) decided along with my parents to purchase a new Ford tractor. It wasn't really new except to us. The year was about 1967 and my father found a good used Ford 601 tractor to use on the farm instead of "Bob", our old mule.
