It started out being a old bluebird vacuum. It is a work in progress. It used to be a cart type vacuum now it is a 3 point hitch mount for the Ventrac or other tractors with a 3 point hitch. It has a 8HP motor on it for extra lift. Hope to finish it this weekend. Be kind I work alone on these projects.

If you get any snow in North Carolina you could build a plow (if you don't have one). That is the only thing that came to mind.
