Cup holder?
Some more that I've been thinking of.
Check the clothespin is in place (choke accessory)
Be sure you have 2 ice scrapers. 1 curved for each side of the windshield.
Check handbrake operation for ice turning.
Check ski rack mountings.
Rain-x your wheels (wire wheels only)
.. and personally..... I think the snow blower WILL fit. I'm going to need
a double V crank pulley, though. Pix on request.
Good night. Peter C
