Nice project with some neat  parts...I see a horn and an ag weight, for example. What are your plans for the buildup...Stock or wheelin jeep?

Looks like your starting with a very solid vehicle.

That is the smallest snow blade I have ever seen. LOL 

Ok I know it's your front bumper with a tow bar attached, but it did take me awhile to figure out.

So far here's the deal....
It does have a Ag weight, as well as a throttle handle it also has some fixtures in the bed that mount to the frame actually sandwich the frame, also has overloads on it. But it does not have a PTO on it. And the Ag misc is staying off of it it looks like it has taken its toll on some of the parts of the jeep....front of the frame has been welded and the bed of the tub is junk.

The color is not original, the original color is Luzon Red so it will go back to that color or a color that is close.

I am going to do a restore on it as close as an amateur like me can get it. I've got a long road ahead of me and I may have bitten off more than I can chew.

PS.....
That is a very very rare snow blade actually it is made for fine grading. I hear it is very very valuable.... Wanna buy it? LOL

Also the tub is junk so I am in the process of taking a plasma cutter to it and cutting it up for scrap id plate and all..WinkLOL
