Another 110 V8 added
Another day, another V8. Fell for this one as another patinated vehicle.

It's not on the original chassis as this was rotted out so new galv one fitted. Original paint but missing the CSW decals. Replacement NOS bulkhead and NOS 4 speed gearbox fitted. Top end re-build, axles rebuilt and interior standard bar the front headrests. 130k miles but a useable 12 seat 4 speed early 110. I went weak at the knees again Embarassed

Stuff to do like sort the wheels out, headrests, paint the rear x member etc.

Driven sensibly, what can you realistically expect to see economy wise out of the old 3.5 litre?

Do you know if they ever build any 110 hard tops with the v8?

I managed 22 mpg on runs in my old 90 V8. Yes, they made hard tops too. 1951 80" S1 2.0

22! That's positively acceptable... Very Happy

Time to assess my future plans.

It's the V8 sound that puts the mpg concerns to bed!! 1951 80" S1 2.0
