Atc 70 plow set up?

[200xkwit]

Anyone ever try to plow with an atc 70? haha ...yeah I've had lots time on my hands here with situation were all mixed up in. Ive always wanted to make a mini big-red out of a 70. I found a box that had my 70 parts in it after loosing them during a move a year ago. I went ahead and did a budget frame up resto on her while i had everything accounted for. Its a 125cc semi auto with reverse. Led tail light and headlight and custom tire chains. I Raised the seat and fenders and lowered the pegs for better leg room. Also Laid up a little fiberglass dash for the key switch holder. The plow was kind of just a fun project to play with a new welder. No snow yet to try it out but I'm confident its better then a shovel! An excuse to play around if nothing else. Anyway I Hope everyones doing alright! Lmk if any of you ever tried to do this I haven't seen one done before.

Ps sorry about the sideways pics not sure why there like that. I can take more if anyone wants!

That is awesome! I can't wait for my daughter to grow out of her 70 so I can start playing with it again. It was my toy/camp bike before she was born, but then I purpose built it for her. If I got snow, I'd totally build something trick like that. Curious how it works in some light fluff.

She plows! Finally got to test it out a few times here in upstate ny. I had to make a few brackets for the plastic blade. Even doubled up the plastic wasn't strong enough to keep it from bouncing around and folding under load. The 125 engine and the 5/8 gas pipe i built the plow frame from are both holding up very well. If your going to cut up a plastic drum for a blade don't use rivets to put it together haha..and when you cut the barrel leave the bottom on so the ends of the plow have more structural support then hopefully you wont need to make brackets like i had too. :rolleyes: also the tire chains are a must have on this small wheeler. I made these ones out of some bulk chain from homedepot (25 bucks) The little frame wheeler pushes a full plow of wet snow very well! Surprisingly well infact! Lots of fun clearing the driveway and the 36 inch wide blade is perfect for sidewalks :) bring on the snow
