More pics. I know mottled shade is the worst but best I could do for right now. The more replies the more curious I get. If someone doesn't figure this out soon I'll take better pics again.
Can't image now that this was on a Wheel Horse, just that the PO saw the tag on the blade and perhaps saw it mounted on some tractor. Still little idea what the "foreign" object is but I believe it was only used to mount the blade so that it could also be raised. I'm thinking the rear hangers mounted to the other make tractor and the whole thing pivoted there, but no idea how.
As just mentioned, perhaps to drive a snow blower, but it would seem to me that it must be a rear mounted one though I see no means to mount it.
If one looks close there are SO many clues! And yet I remain clueless...
Wait a minute. what if we are looking at this backwards? Really! What if this was setup for a rear push blade? Something was cut off where the angle was welded on and that looks more structural than the other end. And I keep wanting to fit those little lengths of pipe over the rear hitch pin on a WH somehow but then the pulleys are on the wrong side, ahh, geeze.
What did I say? Clueless!
