IH 80 snowblower

Maybe 7 or 8 years ago i purchased a used snowblower for my Dad to use on our Cockshutt 1600 we owned. The first winter he took the rear PTO out of the 1600. We fixed the Cockshutt's PTO, and my Parents started going to Florida for the winters. The blower just sat in the woods for years.
I was at my Dads pulling out unwanted shrubs with the 766 today, and i decided to dig it out of the woods and take it home for storage. I though it looked similar to the IH blowers i'd seen on the classifieds. After locating the serial tag and a hour in reducer I could read that its a #80 blower made in Canada.
My friend and I stripped it for sand blasting this afternoon. It has about 4 or 5 layers of paint on it and most are peeling off. Should blast off easy.Here are a few pics. Kent

I agree. Not much chance of twisting them up like the new blowers. How wide is the 70? Do you know how to read the serial tag? My serial number is
090904C00 4 9 8 9
 
the 70 is 78" wide but dosen't have the holes for the upper auger. I got no Idea how to decifer the serial #. Mine is in the tree row for summer. and it has the manual crank for the chute.
 

Definitely an IH 80.

I have a 70.

The 80 has the upper auger option and the brace on top of the gearbox, the 70 only has the gear box bolted from the bottom.
