45 years? That's all?

I have a 1968 24" Ariens with a 7hp Tecumseh on it. It doesn't have any rust on it, I guess I got the "good" steel. My Grandfather purchased it new. It has NO safeties at all, but boy does it huff some snow!

My Grandmother used to run it, and once she was in her 60s put a 110v electric start on it. I rebuilt the carb and put a new muffler on it. I keep air in the tires and leave the chains on. EVERY time I'm done using it, I close the fuel valve and run the bowl dry.

This machine has never failed me. The only thing I had to fix was weld/repair a skid on one side. I coulda bought a new skid, but why? A little steel, grinding, paint and good as new.
