3b Snowblower

WANT

Everything about this is correct.



Anyone have info on this wonderful piece of machinery?

 

The only large snowblower I’ve ever seen on an old Jeep was powered by, IIRC, a V-4 Porsche engine mounted in the bed, and the drive shaft went past the passengers side door at about shoulder height.

 

Right. An outfit in MN can do a similar kinda deal with a Briggs on a skid that front mounts and runs below the Jeep/UTV.

This looks PTO powered tho, which is too cool for school.

 

Porsche never made a v4. More likely a wisconsin they were quite common.

 

Never say never.
Why did the Porsche 919 use a V4 engine?

 

But would an obviously ridiculously cheap engine like that be appropriate for a snow blower--------

 

haha thats new to me but im an air cooled guy. Can you imagine that! Yeah I got this old race car engine fit in the back of the old jeep perfect just had to add a few braces wind her up itll throw snow a half mile just dont forget your ear plugs

 

I'm couldn't find it in a quick hunt but there was a 3b with a front mounted 3pt snowblower that ran off a 3 belt clutch at the crank. It was much simpler than the rear ground driven or 2nd engine options
