Progress sofar

Dun:
fabed new bracket for the bucket and welded in place
Got the carb cleaned up
new 5W30 engine oil
new belt for the auger/impeller
carb tuned engine running good
replaced chute crank bracket
found a knob for my choke

Minor setbacks:
broke a bolt on one of the skids
had to rebuild one side of the auger shaft (that big bolt on one side had a matching big hole)
bolt on the other side of the auger was the wrong size and won't come out (I'm persuading it with a grinder and a a drill)

ToDo:
still waiting on my belt guard to come in
need to fab a plate for the bottom of  the housing
need to install my impeller clearance kit

I gota get a move on caus it started snowing today
