Is that the original snow plow option for the Bronco or something you put together yourself? I keep reading about how great Broncos were at plowing snow, but I've never actually seen one setup.

I actually bought it that way. It was a Meyer plow w/ a 6 1/2' blade. Dont think it was an option but worked really well. Sold the plow a week before we got those huge snow storms december '06'. great luck huh, could payed for itself.

All three of those pictures the same bronco?

My father-in-law uses his '60 something bronco to plow snow. He swapped in an Np435 and she plows like a beast now. I just hope he doesn't tear it up before I inherit it.

That's kinda what I was getting at, but my '74 was rusted like that too and I cut it as well. Didn't really care then, but now that I would love to have a stocker...
