I bought this 110 3 weeks back and just in the last few days it is coming together,had a burned ex valve and the deck is weak but it works good so I will keep it (it is original),got new hood decals on the way.Took 3 days to resurface the hood to what I was satisfied with and when I pulled the decal off I noticed the finish was never smooth like the 300 series but it is now.Had to put a new seal in the brake shaft and build a brake pad myself (80 bucks for a brake setup.I used JD rattle can's on this one but I think it would have cost less if I had got out the HVLP.
110 1974 finally making some headway on restore

Thanks Guy's.:thanku:Got the decals coming in a few days,30 bucks,I like this little guy(no electrics to worry about ) and it steers really good,I think I am going to put a upright muffler on it?
KATT it sat outside in the weeds for 3 years so BUFFING was out.But it does have it's badge.:thThumbsU
Forgot to mention that the fender pan is a pita to remove so while I had it off I removed 1/4 inch off the sides where it passes by the pedestal.problem solved.

Nice work, I want a 110 to resto, when the money is in the account I will be doing one for sure. It will make a nice companion to my 210.

I more refer to them as little, because they remind me of a tiny little pocket version of an old 1010 Deere.
There's a smokin little 112 pretty close to me that would be a great project, but in my current situation, I just cant swing it.

I had one around here for like 250 and it looked halfway descent. I wanted it but I know my wife would have killed me if I had 3 in the garage. My second 210 has been delivered to my cousin so I am back on the hunt for another. I would love to find a 216 as well, but I am not holding my breath...
