Welcome to SNOWPLOW GARAGE

[Prosno]

This week we are taking a 2120 ford tractor and transforming it into a much sportier model.
Here is the victim, uh the tractor to be customized

[Prosno]

here is John, and Jay laying out the flames after the hood has been sanded and taped off

[Prosno]

Time to clean up the engine compartment and detail everything with new paint

[Prosno]

John laid down base coat of white

[Prosno]

John mixing up somemore magic in his spray gun, who runs bartertown? you do masterblaster

[Prosno]

John lays out the orange licks around the edges

[Prosno]

I think this is going to turn some heads

[Prosno]

finish and shine is nicer than most new cars

[Prosno]

checking it out. On the next Snow Plow Garage we'll take you through the assembly and other details which will be added. Thanks for tuning in.

[easyrider241]

Looks good:notworthy

[Western22288]

wow you guys did a great job with the paint. i like it. :)

[W-n-K Landscaping]

Great job guys!! Can't wait to see what you do to the blade or blower that goes on it! Very proffesional results- should we be contacting the discovery channel about getting you guys some airtime?

Bill:shades

[Prosno]

already did the blower, theres a story and pics in the sidewalk equipment section on this site

[Prosno]

another shot

[W-n-K Landscaping]

Bill- thanks for the tip on the pics in the other thread- just checked them out and left a post there. Now- what are you doing up right now? I hope I'm the only one getting over the flu and am on just because I couldn't sleep at all. Hope all is well with you and your daughter. My wife thinks I'm crazy right now- but I figured it's better to let her sleep I'm quieter sitting up and using my laptop than laying down and coughing my head off!



Bill

[slplow]

What are guy's doing, trying to scare the snow away with the flames ? HA HA Looks great.

[topgunlandscaping]

Rock on guys that is awesome

[JohnnyU]

Wow Bill!! Looks great!pimp

I think flames would look good coming up that white fender as well.... When do you cut the exhaust off, and test it like on that other "GARAGE" show? LOL!:rolling

[snowplowjay]

Here are some more pics of the project of the week.

[snowplowjay]

John Lays down the first coat of orange details

[snowplowjay]

[snowplowjay]

Now thats HOT

[snowplowjay]

[John DiMartino]

[Honest Mike]

WOW, I must say that looks awesome. :shades That guy does great work. :) When its all done, are you guys gonna use it in snow, or will snow be the last thing it ever sees?? :D Mike

[mdb landscaping]

thats hilarious phoenix.....i used play with that website for hours. all my buddies got stuff emailed to them:D

[Crimedog]

That is awesome! I really like the orange around the flames. It looks like you guys aren't going to plow, you're just going to melt the snow out of the way;)

[myoder]

That will definately turn some heads:D

[NYRookie]

I'm jealous. My tractor does not look as mean as yours. Matter of fact it kind of looks like a sissy. What would it cost if I where to have my tractor done like yours?

[Jerre Heyer]

Bill, It sounded like you guys were huffing some serious fumes last night. Looks great. Now where's the pict of the little lady you had helping you........ Jerre

p.s. We could have used your help on our project but I think John is going to use Black Paint on his and let the pipe provide the flames.

[Chuck Smith]

Jerre, you should mount a web cam in your shop and leave it on 24/7 so we can see what is going on in your Snowplow Garage!

~Chuck

[wyldman]

He doesn't even need the black paint Jerre,the soot will take care of that ! :D

They did sound a little high on the paint fumes last night.They had better get some snow soon,or they will start flaming everything in sight.

Weve been talking about doing some more stuff up. Me and John come up with the ideas, Billy yells at us (like Pauly Sr on OCC) and we just start taping while he is B****ing at us in the background :)

[sno-mover]

That looks cool :grinz :burnout

[Tileman]

Bill, Jay and John you all have way to much time on your hands.

Next thing you know you will have all the plow trucks in the shop, and have flames on the trucks and the plows.


Great job awsome:)



Tileman

[Prosno]

Watch next weeks issue of Snow Plow Garage truck IS next

[windmill]

Again, after seeing the other thread on JDiMartino's truck, another outstanding thread with another reason to visit this site day after day. Even with the threat of divorce hanging overhead.:D
J/K . . . . about the divorce that is.

[JCurtis]

speaking of flamed trucks....

Hey Jay in one of those pics is that a Mid 80's chevy / GMC truck with flames?

would be interested in seeing pics of it whether its 4wd or not.:D

[Prosno]

Hey Mr. curtis how are ya? Yes its a chevy car carrier. I'll post some pics of it later today. Sharp eyes Jeff.

[snowplowjay]

Some of todays updates.

The hood has been remounted as well as the lower shroud.

The F350 is the next piece of equipment on deck for a detailing makeover ;)


Last pic for today :)

[Prosno]

welcome to tonights snowplow garage! tonights episode is flaming the fenders

[Prosno]

this has been one great project

[Prosno]

Last pic for me tonight

[mdb landscaping]

better not scratch her up the first storm out with it:D

[Prosno]

I want to thank Chuck Smith for building this site and having the priviledge to post these pics here. I hope you all have enjoyed this craziness as much as I have. I'm glad to be here with what I call my family and share my ideas. Thanks Chuck.

[crazy4jay]

gee, and I always thought a plow was just a plow...thank you EVERYONE for giving me a sneak peek at your world and your 'toys'. I now have a much better appreciation for your passion.
Bill/Jay your designs and details are remarkable (and anyone else that paints their toys), you would never find such machines in PA :(

[snowplowjay]

Well get some good looks at the FLAMED fenders. It will sadly be the last time that you see them like that. Jerre's over FLAMING of us to SnowTime went to Billy's head and BANNNNNNNNNNG now they are getting painted over.


Me and John are now filling the shop with puddles of tears at Bill's repainting of the flamed fenders.


It truly has been a sad day at Snow Plow Garage.


:(


Jay

[John DiMartino]

Jay,quick get bill some more alcohol,so he changes his mind back again.:( . To paint over those flames would be a shame.:(

[hbrady]

Man... that is very nice. I smell another Discovery Channel series :D

I can see it now....

"What the %$^&%$ are you talking about... you can't paint over those &^%%$ flames!!! You do that and you're gonna get a size "bakers dozen" in your %$^"

Sorry..... I couldn't resist :burnout

[snowplowjay]

Yea well that pretty much sums up what John and myself said to Bill.

We even had a few other doofs in the shop arguing about the flames.


We outnumbered Bill but he always wins :(



Jay

[crazy4jay]

Its all good, with or with out all the decor....

I am sure someone in the shop has another brilliant idea forming :p

[Tileman]

Bill why? :(





Tileman

[Prosno]

Snowplow Garage was a little crazy today, I didnt want the fenders flamed cause I thought it was too busy yet everyone else disagreed. Fnders are now white. Now on to bigger and better things-the 350 is getting laid out! Tommorrow I will have pics. Hopefully finished product. Here is Just a tease....

[slowpoke]

hey guys,

The tractor looks GREAT.... BUT


Does it have a HEMI?






:jk

[Jerre Heyer]

Bill, Jay and Billy,


ROCK ON GUYS..........

That equipmet looks great. I was only teasing. I think Jack fell off the chair when I told him what to ask you. I just wish he had a Video recorder and camera when he asked you.

Bill I think you have too much time on your hands but I commend you for finding such a talented set of paint an detail guys and Jay and Billy. Also for keeping them employed between storms god know's they need something to do.

Those will surely make people talk about the equipment and you but remember.

If there not talking about you there talking about someone else and if there doing that there not thinking about you so why not make them talk about you............


Jerre

[JCurtis]

:eek: BILL :eek: :eek: :eek:

Bill, please say it ain't so????? Why would you paint those great fenders over again?????


Please don't !!!!!!

[slplow]

Now all you guy's need to do is chrome the exhaust pipe on the tractor.

[Prosno]

Well people we ran the completed tractor for the first time and it looks good. Heres some pics

[Prosno]

The shine our painter John aka Rageplowing put on this hood is incredible

[Prosno]

Blower ran flawless and so far we didnt burn off any paint

[Prosno]

Heres Jay washing off his jeep and my 250, that jeep cleaned the sidewalks at my big comercial account right down to pavement-nice sidewalk truck, got me thinkin Jay

[cat320]

Bill gonna be painting your loader that in the background?

[crazy4jay]

bill jay and john
glad you got the toys done in time to go play in the snow!!!! I am sure you will make a very big impression!!! :p

[Tileman]

Bill the tractor and blower are awsome. if you are going to repaint why not have them look great.

Bill , Jay and John great job , well done.

Someday we will have one of those.


Thats actually our neighbor Pete Larese's John Deere Loader.


Hes a great guy with some sweet equipment :)



Jay

[ratlover]

So has anything else gotten flamed lately?

I'm looking for a new hobby and have been thinking about starting to flame everything in site :shades ,thinking of getting me an airbrush and going to town also.....some cool screaming gosty demon guys and flames on a bobcat.......maybe a running frosty on a plow......dont have enough time to get things I need to do done yet I'm finding projects to start :confused:

just looking for inspiration :D

[Prosno]

Going to flame the 350 I think just waiting to get the time. That will be the next episode of SNOWPLOW GARAGE:burnout

[snowplowjay]

Right now we are actually in the process of updating the headlight bezels and grille on the F350 to go from the DULL gray XL ones to the CHROME XLT ones.

Its going to look really good when its all finished :)



Jay

[76chevyman]

Stay tuned for the future project on Bill'd tractor. Ill post some pics sunday if not Monday. And Some action Shots of some Hard workers :D

Rich:burnout

[76chevyman]

LOL Just to let Bill and Jay Know The truck did not like that blade on the highway. Well lets just say i had to plow the merrit from exit 60 to exit 42 didnt look to see how much cutting edge is left but that was the only way to keep the truck some what cool, and even with the blade all the way down she was still in the red. I wonder sence it doesnt have a deflector that the wind hitting the blade pushes the ait right up and over the hood. Becasue my westurn with the defletor i could do 70 on the highway and stay were i want to be temp wise. On the way home i couls only do 40 with the plow on the ground LMFAO. It was a fun ride. My first thing is to put a bigger fan in the truck. But other then that the truck handled the plow really well i was happy.

Rich:burnout

[DT366]

hey bill was the tractor faster now with the flames?

[76chevyman]

Here are some pics from the snow plow garage :D
Can anyone tell me who this hard worker is??

[76chevyman]

My new fisher on my western set up. Dont worrie she is going to be painted western red with the words western want to be on the front (maybe)

[76chevyman]

The young lady that hooked up the fisher blade to me truck ;)

[76chevyman]

Me Bill and Jay desiding what to do with the chain And if you look the Plow is like 1/4 inch away from the bumber LOL

[76chevyman]

Jay and Bill making plans on there nice new Western For Bill's Tractor. I gave some input and Bill seemed to like my ideas but ill let Bill tell you guys If he is going to do it or not

[76chevyman]

Who is that under My truck :eek:

[76chevyman]

Heat Wrench that cant be good. (kidding)

[76chevyman]

The master at work Cutting nochs in my plow frame so the fisher will fit

[76chevyman]

Another

[76chevyman]

The sparks are flying now:eek:

[76chevyman]

And then when he is done and you cant see to good but the dog was happy he was done too LMFAO

[76chevyman]

It was a real enjoyable few hours even though the ride home stunk alittle, but well worth it. I hope to be apart of more epsiodes of snowplow garage
Much thanks goes to Bill and Jay

Rich:burnout

[snowplowjay]

The pics came out good Rich.


I love that shot of "TORCHMAN" Billy LOL



Jay

[crazy4jay]

hey chevy
thanks for the insite---great pics and good story.....is it getting flamed? :p

[phoenix827]

I LOVE the mangled " chevy tough" plate! Hope the truck is tougher then the plate!!:grinz :grinz Looks good! What had to be torched to fit?

[76chevyman]

The mangeled plate if from my plow hitting when i stack. Bu tnow with the fisher it will hit alot more LOL. On my plow gear have a long c channel that 6 ears come out for pining up the plow and for the fisher sence it has 3 holes on the plow it wouldnt fit in so we notched 1/2'' out of the bottom of the c channel. and it worked quit well and i am 98% sure it didnt take anything away from the integraty of my plow frame.
As for the rest of the truck its not as bad as the plate but its pretty close, she is going to be redone in the spring from the frame up take the cab off and rear body everything. Just need to find a place to do it. Hopfully i can locat a shop by then

Rich :burnout

[76chevyman]

crazy4jay My insite to Bill was sence he is going to Paint the blade the same color as the Tractor is that he put flames from the cutting edge up. But Ill let him tell you weather or not its going to happen. It was just a suggestion

Rich:burnout

[phoenix827]

Just bustin Rich, I LOVE see the older iron still going strong!

[76chevyman]

I just wanted to see this back at the top for awhile hope no one mines its a great thread with cool pics. Bill if you ever need some help in the shop im there. and ill bring the :drinkup. Great shop and great people. Ill leave the dog home next time LOL.

Rich :burnout


Bill we need more eposiods of SNowplow Garage.

[snowplowjay]

As Mikey Teutul would say Bill's DSL "took a dump" so thats why he hasnt been on. Were working on cleaning out the V box spreader and sandblasting/painting it up now since it looks like winter in CT doesn't want to come back.


Weve got a few things brewing too. We still haven't started working on the custom fabricating of that blade we traded you for Rich.

Hey man you know my cell number. Were down there all the time. The best time to come around would be Fri, Sat, or Sun. Call me sometime.


Hey I see that Fisher didn't work out so well for you :(.


Sorry to hear that


Jay

[76chevyman]

The fisher is good but the truck over heats big time with that blade i added a bigger radiator and a flex fan now im going to go to a big or maybe a twin electric fan. I havent even plowed with it yet thats what has me buming the most. O well it never hurts to try things exspesialy when its doesnt cost you anything. But its a great plow and im sure some one has a better use for it then me. But im still thinking about a blizzard 810 on my truck. LOL. Ill call you sometime maybe nexted weekend except saturday i have a job at Saint Raphils hospital.

Rich:burnout

[Prosno]

We're back with a new project in a way, time to redo the old girl-heres some pics to show the start.

[Prosno]

More of the teardown

[BWhite]

You going to chrome her out ?

[Prosno]

Maybe the stack, not sure yet

[jbutch83]

Looking good there Billy, glad to see you are back!

[lawnguy]

very nice job there Bill, but in picture 3 it looks as though there is an Opostrich in the picture.

I thought those were almost extinct:wink:wink

[DaveCN5]

I think it would look cool to replace all the lights with LED so you have clear lenses. Nice tractor though. Use to run a ford 555 back hoe. That thing just would not die.

[Prosno]

heres a few updates

[Prosno]

another quick pic for the pic whores
