Gilson snowblowers... anyone else got 'em?

Recommended Posts

I've got a Montgomery Ward branded snowblower built by Gilson for the '73-'74 season... My grandfather bought it new in May of '74.  It's an 8HP Briggs powered 2 stage with the 'Uni-Trol' transmission.  I love this old machine! It's had a lot of use, but still runs strong!

 

Anybody else got one?

I'd like to get a snow blower for my Wheel Horse, but for the amount of time it would get used each year (if it snows) and the amount they cost over here, it just isn't worth it..

I have a snowplow should I need to shift any snow this year :)

I would love a snow blower for my Bolens; there are a few on the USA bay at the moment at tempting prices but it is the shipping that is the killer. I echo Ian's comments about the lack of snow in the SW to justify buying one sadly.

The only trouble with mine is I bought it to fit to one of my BCS but the pto coupling is the wrong size, if I ever get any spare time I may try & attach it to a Wheelhorse ;)
