I remember those Goose, and I saw one in operation once. A local guy had it and he was really proud of it. It had a heavy string tied to a kill switch in case of mishap. He had it on a sharp looking little stepside Chevy. It worked pretty slick.
A few weeks later I saw his pickup and the left rear fender was all beat up. Seems that each piece dug a little deeper hole until one finally made a complete rotation.

He got rid of it without ever using it again. Up until that point I had thought about getting one because they were cheap and, well, I was too.
If I remember right, the PTO model turned the opposite direction from the wheel mounted one.
