cootpic
Here's our Coot before doing any work. The pipe structure is probably not a roll bar, but was to transport fire fighting equipment.

With the engine installed. Lots of temporary stuff yet, but I was eager to get it running

Engine seen from another angle. This was a very tight fit and I cut an access hole in the side of the tub to get at the oil filter. I will not take this Coot in the water.

Coots and things need cover and we made this one for about $1.00/sq foot. Took me and my son-in-law about three days to cut, glue and nail (used nail gun) the trusses and put them up.

One guy stood on the tractor forks and unrolled the plastic while one drove the tractor.

barnwithsnow
And, yes, it does withstand a considerable snow load and very high winds (at least 45 mph so far). The snow usually slides off pretty easily, but it I get anxious I'll use a roof rake to pull it off.
