Nice… i’m about to order a refill for my cross pen from Amazon. My pen is a little different, it’s from the 1980s. I’m hoping it’s as easy as yours is to get the old refill out. Thanks.
@@braydenjackson4761 Nice! They were supposed to have a giant 24-inch shell at the end that shot 2,000 feet in the air, but they didn't fire it off at the end. I don't know why.
@@richardunicorn7879 someone told me it was because I think it rained that day and they didn’t wanna risk anything I guess but idk if that’s true or has any correlation to that.
@@bigcharliesmodelgarage296 Thanks, I wasn't sure how well received this one would be. A pink pick-up truck ain't everybody's cup of tea, but I think it's fun.
Very nice treatment on the Alante, Richard. The red and white flag colours suit it well. Thanks so much for participating in my annual Canada Day celebration. New sub too! 🍁☕👊🇨🇦
Hey Richard, congrats on the 110 find! I bought my Uncle's 110 when he stopped mowing his own yard. I have a '71 112 with a 46'' deck. It is a pleasure to mow with! From Sophia, N.C.
Hello From Central Kentucky. I noticed your video and was naturally curious being that I also have both Cub Cadets and John Deere garden tractors. My 110 John Deere has one of the red M8ST Kohler Magnum engines which is a very self contained engine package with all of the components and controls being on the actual engine rather than the Kohler K181 engines that your 110 has for example. The Kohler M8ST engine was utilized on many of the original Troy-Bilt rototillers which kind of explains the self contained features versus the more normal spaced out features that like your 110 has. Unfortunately they butchered my 110 up a bit with a cutting torch to fit the M8ST engine where the K181 used to be. The positive is that I could maybe find a newer replacement engine without much “Heartburn” being that my tractor is already kind of permanently altered. Right now, I do not have the wiring harness in place because whoever did the butchering also did the same with the wiring which was “A Total Rats Nest” and one day I took my wire cutters and put the butchered harness out of its misery. Surprisingly enough, there was a large portion of the original wiring harness that I could very easily repair should I decide to go back to a K181 or larger engine. I am intending to construct a new wiring harness that will be very similar to the OEM wiring harness,,But make the provision for the rectifier that the M8ST Magnum engine has. Because of the difference, I feel that just making up a new wiring harness is the best way to go. I made sure to subscribe to your RU-vid channel and I wish you the very best with your new project. I would greatly encourage you to check out many of the John Deere garden tractor groups and forums because many of them are extremely active and a great resource for both knowledge and finding hard to find parts.
Thank you very much for the information. I have a little bit of experience with the M8ST as I've used an old Troy-Bilt rototiller quite a lot in the rhubarb patch to keep weeds down. I've got an Economy Tractor Power King that has a larger Kohler engine as well. Kohler's quality of engines used to be very good. I say used to be because I don't have experience with the newer ones. Good luck with your 110 as well.
I bought a 110 in 71 new. My grandson mows with it now. About the only thing major we did to it is rebuild the deck. The Kohler engine is pretty much bulletproof. It does smoke a little but it keeps the mosquitoes away. Enjoy your find, you will probably never need another mower.

wow that ethanol in the gas is horrible never seen it that bad. cool about the snowblower will look great. i had bought an identical one but sat outside with no plug all rusted inside cylinder but atleast the grill was good took it for to put on my 140 with tiller.
Yeah, I'm hoping I can save the gas tank, but obviously the fuel gauge stick has been ruint by old gasoline. Also I'm very excited about the snowblower. It was so coincidental that I found it.
Thanks for hosting the build! I was very excited about this build but I wasn't sure I'd get it done in time. I'm glad it turned out as well as it did. I've really enjoyed seeing everyone's custom Tootsietoy castings!
For the record Beauville was top-of-the-line trim for factory Chevy vans. Insulated & interior panels w/ cloth/vinyl seating. Two tone paint & chrome trim. For the "cadillac" experience you would buy a custom conversion. Great vid! 1st view
Can't get my head around Mattel making this casting. There will be no other instances where the die for this casting would be used for a different purpose. If they had used an existing die and cast a model that just had tempos and paint to make it sort of look like Guinevere it would be far less impressive. The co-ordination of the details in the die and the paint is impressive. This is the coolest 1:64 van I have even seen. Easily my favorite fantasy casting.
