I have seen some old PX150's for sale on EBAY by a guy from Yorba Linda who totally restores them, ships them for free except the crating and guarantees them. Do any of you have any experience with him or her? Do you know anybody that has? I'm still in search of a scoot!

Thanks,

Swoff

Never heard of old PX150s. How old? Back in the 80s we only had P200 & P125s.

There is a guy I believe in the OC, he deals in Viet Bodge Lambys & 60s & 70s 150cc. He also does vintage furniture as well.

"I restore my scooters as a hobby not as a business and as long as I break even I am happy, I just love building quality scooters."

He sure seems to be pretty involved in his hobby, always has a lot of scooters for sale. I need a new hobby!

Cheers,
Rob

Yeah Al, I noticed that too. He also says they have no batteries...something we he claims is better. They are 1978 model PX150s according to the restorer...but indeed Euro models...

I just requested that he post the VIN for the scooter. Let's see what that tells us.
