Finally had a bit of time and brought my puzzle pieces up to the garage for assembly today



It's slow going, mostly remembering where and how everything goes. Glad I have the B110 here to use as reference!



The steering rocks so far...tight as can be, yet effortless to turn. I'm feeling real good about how things are coming together...better than new!

More progress today...got the motor mounted, drive shaft linked up, hydro lift in and the console and tank in place. Put the seat together and mounted it with the rear lift and drawbar. So far, we're doing well! I need to pop her open to put the shift lever in (forgot)..., but then I'm looking at wiring and firing it up!


The new Seat!!

And Snohiker's Toolbox!

All I can say is wow. That is what I picture them looking like on the original showroom. Again Josh, very nice work.

Spend a lot of time today with the dremel and some bushings to get ALL the slop out of the steering pivot points. Back to work tomorrow, so we'll see if I can get the electrical worked out bit by bit this week. It's my only real hesitation on the whole project...The PO had it setup with a coil, which is fine by me, but I'm trying to remember how it all gets tied together...I'll be researching till wednesday unless somebody has some good info for me =]

Josh; my hat's off to you. Absolutely beautiful. Very nice work indeed. Dave

I don't know how you'll do it Josh, it's hard enough to mow after I've given them a good cleaning, which is NOTHING compared to what you have gone through!!

I just recently purchased a Big Ten with tiller, mower deck and snowblower. It runs great but looks like a few parts missing and needs some TLC. I plan to restore it, so find your experiences and project very interesting. What is the color yellow you chose, is it two part paint? Anxiously awaiting to see completed pictures (I'm sure you are too!!).

1911fan, Allen, welcome to the site. Hope you find us useful. Photos would go a long way to helping determine what you need.
