i did more thinging today{by the way the old boy didnt show up today} {respecting age he is about 70+ and im about 42 } for the snowblower body is no proplen in my neck of the woods they burnt out the motors before the body has a bit of rust on it ..I got a few bodys in my yard all they need is a motor so lets say 100.00 to transfer the motor to machine from machine i thought of a handle attach to the head of the motor useing the head bolts to hold it down { piece of 1/4 in thick by 1 1/2 wide by lenth you need? __/----\__ bad pic but you get the idea ... that will help you lift the motor... if the throttle is on the handle bars or a panel just convert remove the cable and just have your throttle on your carb.. so all it is now is 4 bolts and a couple of straps .. and for the owner it was his idea I or we are just trying to perfect it. Unless he wants to get a machine like abbys talk about in he's reveiws mind you its a beuitful machine but with a nice machine like that there's a nice price tag thks again nibbler and as always if anyboby has more ideas your more then welcome to help me [us] thks again Mark

Gravely has  many attachments including snowthrowers and tillers its aquick change unit and very well built.Lots of used parts and attachments on ebay depending on what model Gravely. My model LI has a snow thrower,bushhog 30'', 40'' lawn mower,and a snow/landscape blade. Gravely  1950-1990+ made high quality equipment that will give more modern equipment a work out.
