About five years ago my neighbor (now retired mailman) was given this snowblower by one the people on his route : http://images.craigslist.org/3n13ka3la5Z05U25X0acgff9e9fac3d8a15b1.jpg

He in turn gave it to me as he could not get it running and he had bought a bigger one anyhow. I replaced two missing carburetor mounting screws and the sparkplug. It's been 5 years and countless snowstorms and this silly little machine just keeps chugging along. Everyone on my block is amazed. You have to push it, but at times the larger machines just don't cut it. Not bad for two screws and a spark plug ;D

Not bad, I remember using one those things to make money off shoveling driveways when school would be cancels. I would show up to the door with a shovel and then blow the snow away with the blower. LOL

I miss those days. 

I grew up in north Jersey

I have one that is very similar. It struggles with deeper snow though.

I have one that I use to blow snow off the roof.

I used to have that same one. Worked great for years before I gave it away.
