110 will still be sat where you last saw it. The plan with it last i asked was to fit it up with a diesel engine and genny rather than have to trail cable about behind it. Probs wouldn't run it at full capacity but be enough for a play thing. I'm not sure if it was related to this idea or that there is a problem with it but i know they were struggling to find anybody to do any electrical work on it.Not bee there for years last time I went the 110 was still in a few bits

But a fabulous soundtrack to burn fuel toSounds great, but still won’t handle well on corners or stop safely and even more bits will fall off.
