As many of you know I got couple of 110s in my collection. My 67 round and my dads 72 sqaure.
In the spring I was given 1969 sqaure from a realitive who was cleaning out their shed.
I got it running, but not right. A few days later it lost spark and I lost interest chasing the rabbit hole. Since one 110 is original and one is restored I decided to have some fun with this one.
I was going to drop in a 6hp diesel engine but funds only allowed for a honda clone. I did some repainting and filled in the dash.
Tonight I decided to make a new muffler/stack for it.
I stole a muffle off a junk briggs 8hp engine another realitive gave me( see the pattern?) And farm weled a tail pipe to it.
I should've went a tad higher maybe. I didn't want a 5/8 x 8ft plumping pipe stack on it either. I'm happy with it but wouldn't do it to a real 110.
I know some people probably think it's a waste or shame what I did to this 110. I've seen better repowers but seen a lot worst. I also have a warrant out for my arrest from the original police but to me it's something different in my collection, something I can do stuff to I wouldn't do to the other 110s and it's something my son can drive with me worrying if he bumps into something and it still looks like a 110 for the most part.
