FWIW- Back in the day, just south of Killington Vermont, I had a plow hanging off the front of a 68 VW bug with big a$$ tires and chains. Just for the driveway. The front was so light it would constantly ride up on top of the snow. It was my parts car with coat hangers holding on the rear fenders and a rubber band for the throttle spring and no front lid to fit the A- frame and hydraulics.

It did a great job. I also used it as my ski vehichle to get up the mountain road. I took some flexible metal tubing I got from JC Whitney and connected one end to the heater outlets under the rear seat and stuck the other ends inside my ski boots. They got toasty real quick. For me, insanity began early in life.

It was a purpose built Ve-hickle : )
