Here is a picture of Glen's FC170 doing her thing last winter. I know it looks like a FC150, but it's a 170 lovingly named "The Ugly Duckling".  The previous owner wanted a shorter wheelbase for plowing around his yard.  One bluetip wrench and a half-ass weld job later - shorter wheelbase. Glenn took it to a reputable welder in the area and had them reinforce the previous work. It runs a stock flathead 6 and T-90 trans. Glenn had to put about 600 pounds of concrete on the back to keep the back tires on the ground with the snowplow hanging on the front.
