I can have the case for 1450 delivered,
but it needs lights and a new rim... it
has the hand clutch.

thanks for your opinion

can't beat a cab in thewinter ifyou're blowing snow
but both look nice
it'll be your choice but i think iwould take the oliver

My advice... Just my personal opinion, and maybe a bit exaggerated, since my neck is still stiff from looking back at center auger chase carts; I would pick neither.

Looking backwards at a snow thrower is really difficult. Also, I don't know anyone who can guess the travel speed in reverse at 540 pto rpm.

Why not consider buying a front mounted snow thrower on a slightly newer tractor?

thanks for the advice. Regarding the cab, I tried both tractor and must admit that I didn't like the cab. It hindered visibility a lot... maybe it's not cold enough yet
