Very Fresh air. The 110Posted by Nicky Smith Mon, March 13, 2017 16:09:40 Now there have been a number of reasons why I have not been posting lately but I am back in the saddle a touch more now. The 110 has had the odd bit of titivating here and there but nothing worthy of note at the time. I...

Bad Head & Birthday Parties. The 110 Posted by Nicky Smith Sun, February 19, 2017 08:47:34 I don't booze. No, honestly I don't! The days of that nonsense are far behind me and as I sit here at my kitchen table this morning listening to Radio 2 whilst tenderly nursing a cup of tea I remember why...

Well you didn't have to wait too long..... Great Body in a First Coat. The 110 Posted by Nicky Smith Sat, February 18, 2017 10:31:07 Bear with me today I have a bit of a thick head. That "One for the road" last night may well have tipped me over the edge. Still, while I sit here at the kitchen...

Still a nope as i am 3 sheets to the wind,!!

lol Nope not all Black. There will be another colour in the mix too and I am sat at home covered in the stuff. I will be updating the blog either ater or tomorrow so as my poor old Gran used to say... "Patience is a virtue" ;)

Snoring & Slap On. The 110 Posted by Nicky Smith Fri, February 17, 2017 06:14:44 My Wife has a problem with snoring. Sounds of deep rumbling along with what I can only describe as several near death experiences due to what seems like strangled suffocation lead to a Doctors appointment being made...

Lol morning Rich :) its nice to be missed! Life has been hectic as hell but hopefully shoukd be plodding along with this again now. I was a bit scant on info wasnt i...sorry about that! Right then. I used a little hand held sander that took the alloy corrosion right back. Then i washed the...

Rub Back & First Coat. The 110 Posted by Nicky Smith Tue, February 14, 2017 16:10:13 I shall open with an apology. I have been rather quiet of late but with good reason. That being family. Mine have kept me busy of late so with work added into the mix I have been rather short on hours. Seeing as...

Its the type that sits in the centre depression of the bonnet and I would still use the rubbers that are currently fitted to keep the tyre off of the bonnet itself ;)

It would look good wouldn't it and I am tempted to use it now I have it. Didn't even consider it before but now.....

Oh and thanks for the compliment on the brickwork...takes me an age but it gets there saving lots of pennies!!!

If I use the bonnet protector I would drill the holes for mounting on the bonnet through it again I think. I do like a wheel on the front! I may just sell the bonnet section yet but I have not made my mind up. Need to get some etch primer so I can paint the chequer plate black...

Not Spending Money. The 110 Posted by Nicky Smith Sun, January 29, 2017 15:02:22 You have probably noticed that there has been very little on the Land Rover front lately. This is for two reasons. The first is quite frankly I needed a bit of a break away from the damned thing. It was starting...

:) Maybe just a little bit ;)

Nope keeping shtum for the time being lol

Well i could say the colour s but that would spoil the surprise!

Styling. The 110Posted by Nicky Smith Thu, January 26, 2017 18:48:33 Well the paints ordered. The 110 wont be driving anywhere soon but at least it will look good not doing that! In all seriousness it will be nice to have a change of direction with it for a little while...

I think they both look good! I won't be doing camo style though...

I shall keep plodding on :) green and brown, theres an idea...

It will probably be black and green if I am honest but I am tempted to go white or sand as well....
