Simplicity vs Murray

Hey guys,
I got 1 1984 Sinplicity 4112 Hydostatic rider from my girlfriends grandma this past spring. Thing is SUPER clean, works great, I'm very happy with it. Anyway, I've been looking since then for a snowblower attachment since then. Many close calls, and shady fall-through's, still no dice.
Lowered my expectations and stumbled across this real clean snow blade - http://i115.photobucket.com/albums/n...7/MVC-023S.jpg
- for $20. Longer story short it was made for a Murray, blade model 24455. Anyone complete a similar swap without major fabricating? Or know where I can get a manual for the blade, I'm not even sure after looking closer where it should pivot...etc..
Any help would be swell!

looks like the gold colored pieces would go way under the Murray, and the square plate would mount on the front of the frame or something. I have a lot of Simps and Allis Chalmers, but only one smaller one like yours, it's a 6000 series though. Here's one on ebay! Hey, it's even in Wi!

It looks like it pivots right behind the blade.
