Modern Vespa

So I got the freshly painted body back home couple of days ago let the fun begin been waitin for this day to come around... I try post pics as I go along. After getting my indo bodge home it was time to strip it, removed all the paint and went about cutting all the rust out.
First pic is as I got her.
Sec pic is majority of the panels I replaced
Third pic is new paint
I'm as happy as a pig in shit

Wait just a second there Rizzo! That black looks HORRIBLE! It's just primer right? Paint it Red.. that's BEST for you!

Been busy so not much progress in the VB put the st lock and wire harn that's bout it.

Going to follow along, I'll be starting to put mine back together very soon as well. Black is defiantely unique.

Seen this beauty today at a local exotic car importer... got a warm fuzzy feeling in my pant's fuk that things hot!! I want one

Slap yourself, it's a tarted up whore from the 'other side' just trying to seduce & convert you!!! Thing like that would be a MAJOR commitment, you know.



She is pretty damn hot and OK I probably would enjoy spending a few long evenings with her as long as I could just leave when it suited me.

Been a busy wk not much time to work on scoot managed to fit the front fork painted the wheels (not to keen on the wheels nuts, just don't do for me) see wat happens on w/end may get some time.

Love the stripe. You've got a VBB Challenge Stradale!

Yeh bro... a strad rat how ur 308 doin? I have a nice set of brembos that will fit on ur car chek em out.

Cheers

Shit man. Talk about back from the dead! You've gotta name that scoot Lazarus. I would've chucked that frame on the scrap heap. Nice work. That black does look shit hot.

Yeh bobo !! was gonna scrap it bustin my chops to find a good s/hand body... fuk there rare as rokin horse shit so had no options open to me.

Cheers ... Don't let ur dog mess with a porcupine

Now it's a challenge st-rat-ale

Tempting, so tempting...shipping from oz would probably kill me though Looking good! Is that a vinyl decal? I'd like to have one of those if it's removable.

Yes its a decal i can sort one out for u let u no wat the cost is stay tuned

Forza!!!!

Any progress?

So it's finally finished, glad to report all is well other than the expected tweaking that needs to be done... it drive as I expected.

Cheers

Good looking...I like the red color that you put there mate

Looking really nice rizzo... is your front rim on the right way around? just looks like your front tire is offset to the right (in the picture, left if you were on the bike) a bit? How does it track?

The front guard a bit off line with the bolt holes... small tech detail think I can live with it, it drives perfect just need to bed the brakes in bit more then readjust them.

Cheers guys

Copy that... looks great man!

My w/end ride shoot down to the espresso bar nice and cruzi for a quik shot with the lads, lucky if this rat travels 50 khs a wk don't dare ride this every day to many fuk hed drivers ova here mate... it's been a long hard trip to get it to this stage total cost bout $3-4000 au... next project wud luv an APE but man there rare as rockin horse shit, maybe do another VBB but resto it to all original. Glad u guys like it.

Cheers

Really looks great with a lot of unique touches.
