At that time Dad and I were still plowing with the JD 1010 dozer, and the Farmall C with chains and a six and a half foot "Glenn Roger" brand snowplow. Bust them out with the dozer, then clean up with the C. We had a spread out route of paying customers, as well as our own farm to plow.

I'm still plowing a much expanded route, with a nice warm F-250. In fact I am about to go at it as soon as I finish breakfast.
