Modern Vespa

^^^^ That should keep you busy for a while.

pretty good, what's the list? I see a SS but what else is in that pile?

Vespa 90, GL & SS
Lammy Ser2 LI150, Cento, Ser3 LI125, TV175 & SX200
All major projects but will proberbly part out the worst of the pile. Sadly the SS is almost rusted in half.

That pile isn't really a good deal at all. Think about it: At $2700 you would have to either sink $15000 into the restoration of a couple of them to create value - which means you've spent $17,500 before you've made a single penny. Or you would have to part out the stuff that has value (leg shields, SX engine, TV engine, Inno front disk, etc). And then you've got your $2700 back but the remainder of it is just an utter pile of crap.

It is a neat story and find, but definitely not a deal of the day.

Anybody here pick up those three smallframe bodies with miscellaneous bits?

Crap... and Im working just outside Orlando... was too busy to search craigslist though.

My wife does quilting projects, and she does a newsletter for the local quilt guild...just found this in my photo stream (she uses it for her newsletter) and I couldn't help thinking how similar quilters are to people who tinker with scooters...

i like that

Are these really as rare as he/she says it is.

Not sure, how rare is supper rare? I think it's a bit less than medium rare, but maybe it's more like tartar?

maybe its lunch rare.

Ok I'll play. Maybe it's rare because it's the on,y scooter that has a TITTLE

We might have a winner here for bizarre craigslist ad of the week.

"I would love to see it wiped around Brooklyn then sitting!"

I dunno... says it needs a new petcock witch... those are hard to come by, i hear....

tuned P166

$1000

but it has a tittle, So that's good. I love tittles.

I feel bad , we shouldn't make fun of him. He might have Lysdexia.

Even if it is rare (doubtful), it you want a small frame, go for a 125. That 50 won't get out of it's own way. Also, why would you want something that is so rare - it just makes it harder to find parts. I guess it would be ok if you are going to park it in your basement, sit on it now and then and make room-room sounds.

Funny but true

Bought it yesterday. Think I did pretty well.... 359 miles.

Wrong section. You may get a better response over in general.

Got a lead on a Lammy in Jacksonville, FL. It's an estate sale and the guy just wants it gone. PM for contact info...

Another pic...

but but but... its in Jacksonville. Florida is a travellers timesuck.

to its credit: it's not in the keys. I skipped out on meeting up with TravisNJ on mine 'cuz that state sucks so much.

Lovely Cushman, doc. Kinda wish it was closer.



Mmmm.... tasty locking helmet hook included!

I hear ya... a few good deals here in portland.

lammy project

I really like that lammer. Someone get it

yeah, you dont even have to do anything to it:

its already broken down...

You should get it. It'll save you the effort of have to work on it all week just to blow it up.

SO true

Only $500, so someone needs to jump on this!

1981 Vespa P150X For sale does not run. I have a few special tools as well that can go with it. Just do not have the time to work on it. It's in CT.

^^^ If it was closer, I'd snatch it up. Then I would have two that don't run.

Listing is already gone, so looks like someone already did.

That one was a no brainer if you were remotely close.

Yup. For that price, I'd have taken the heat at home if it were near me.

Fortunately (unfortunately) I don't have the collector bug in me, so one scooter is enough for now, otherwise I would have called myself and not posted it.

Hopefully someone got a good deal.

I was feeling the same way on this one, but decided to let somebody else enjoy reviving it.
Sure it's ugly now, but it seems all there & pretty straight.



Only $300 & motor turns over too. http://seattle.craigslist.org/see/mcy/4920817165.html

Damn Voodoo... that's a pretty decent deal.
