No, sorry for you guys checking for anything alcohol related, this is just what my little girl christened our 110 CSW, and the name has stuck since.
I got his some time ago, and despite intending to do a quick tidy up and use it, ended up being a much more involved project with an impending deadline, a trip to Cornwall from Sheffield (ironic really given that's where I picked it up from).
It's been a long journey, in which time I've learnt to weld, prep body panels, paint with a compressor and gun, sew to make my own seat covers from lengths of material, service all manner of oil filled components, adjust swivels, wheel bearings and gear linkages, wire in different lights, chase wiring faults, and install a stereo system with nothing to start with.
To say I've learnt a lot would be an understatement.
Anyway, seeing as how pictures paint a thousand words, I will simply upload the pictures I have. They may not be in order exactly, as I just have a bundle in a folder, so I've tried to sort them into exterior and interior. I didn't take many pictures of the many many days spent underneath, as I'm sure everyone has seen enough of their own chassis' to be sick of grinding, welding and waxoyling!!!
I appreciate that it will not be in everyone's style, but I'm pretty thick skinned, so feel free to tell me which bits you hate, which bits I've done wrong, and which bits need changing.
All I can tell you is I love it, it suits me and the family, and does everything we ever wanted it to do!!
