Had to refresh my memory on "vestige" - I like it! From Patina to Vestige is not that big a jump sometimes! But yeah, that does need a fair bit of fresh metal in there!
I was actually referring to the hole in the floor and Fred Flintstone, like this - ![]() |

$1500. 64 Vespa with sidecar. Someone should check out. Sidecar has to be worth a few coins on its own.

I'm always fascinated by the cover art being different for different markets. That looks nothing like the US Band of Gypsys cover. Sweet find.

T5 on Ebay
Not a bad price for a T5 if the bids don't go crazy. Sitting at $1500 with no bids. Didn't take $1325 so its re-listed.

Personally, I like it. But then I've owned a Topper, a Silver Pigeon,a Corgi and a 58 Ranchero. Brings back great memories of Scootering mags from the 80s.

I dunno if this is a great deal but that P200 (aside from being my favorite stock color) looks pretty mint considering. One owner scoot! Also, I don't think I'd ever want a sidecar unless someone wants to buy me a house with tons of garage space, still, there has to be a retiree somewhere that's drooling over all the trips around the RV park you could take in this thing.

It's a good deal. The sidecar is not actually attached, judging by the furniture dolly beneath it.
