Sorry fella; 56 (born in 56 too) and started at 12. I was power angle, "Get out and change the plow" I loved doing it up late at night and hanging with Dad, the world never got any better.

Basher you've got a few years on me for sure. I never thought I'd plow for this long. My dad didn't plow but I had the same "power angle" on my first truck. 1953 Willys CJ3A

Just turned 25, been plowing since I was 16 and before that I was snow lowing and shoveling driveways for profit since I was about 9 years old and shoveling my own since I was old enough to stand.
