This is probably an OK deal if you're looking for a hard to find GS150 motor

I've always wondered if those '05 PX200's sell for anywhere near asking price. Are they worth it?...well that's up to the prospective buyer. A low mile '05 PX150 can be had for about $2k USD. I guess that leaves an extra $2500 to buy PX200 cases, a stock cylinder and piston, and a crankshaft. I've built 2 PX150's into PX200's, and they are the cat's meow. It is always fun to see a genuine PX200 though. They seem to pop up every 3-4 years for sale. There wasn't too many that got snuck into the states...maybe like 30 or so?

Maybe not a true DoTD, but a local has a 2003 stock Stella, (cat exhaust, jetting) about 5K miles, a few scrapes on the panels for $1,000. I checked it out, runs fine, needs a battery and tires. Just thought I would pass it along.... this is in Charlotte, NC.

Seller describes as a 'P100' and also as an '81 Primavera. Scruffy, but looks low mile to me.

If I jumped on those, I'd have plenty of time to work on them, because my wife would probably divorce me.

...probably... Does that mean you are considering it?

Definitely worth the money IMO, not sure about the other grief...

Checking out the details, looks like somebody did a fork swap here. See why I think so?

I think the one with the shock on the fork and seamless fender is an original vespa cuz I don't see a Sears plate near the fuel tap and has a Piaggio emblem on the legshield. Looks like a curve tail but the body is not better then the Allstate. Still can get one good scooter out of the pile with a lot of spares. Great deal!

I'd say this is a fair, accurate assessment. I'd have these loaded up already if I was close!

Upon reexamination, I think they were in the middle of trying to do a headset swap.

Here's a solid looking smallie frankenbike that sort of works for me. Nothing too drastic and the quirky changes could be undone. Needs a little help cosmetically but hey, original paint and described as fast!

Motor is a 125, so presumably a 4 speed.

This is a Vespa factory built and very special scooter. Its all steel and the same as a 1960s Vespa. Not many of these to be found. It's a 2006 model and has 150 cc, 4 stroke and 4 speed with clutch. It does 65mph with 2 passengers. . Highway legal. Only 400 miles on it. Tom show contact info $1500 or bo. That is a bargain.

buy it & ride it
Here's an AllState that looks like it was well done. Titled and starts, runs well per the ad. Worth the 1500 if you're looking for an old AllState that's ready to go if it all checks out. And '64 means a 4 speed I believe.

Those 2 red scooters
The closer one is an Italian VNA 125 (probably 1958-61) , has the split headset like an earlier Allstate, but has the fork with the shock. Second one is a later Allstate, but I'm no expert on these so I wouldn't know the year but I'd guess mid 60's. Both are collectable and worth restoring.

Holy smokes! That's amazing, it's still all bagged up it's crate!!
A few months ago I found a 2005 PX150 with under 2 original miles on it. It was not in the crate; rather, the seller had it in his living room. He had also had original Piaggio front and rear racks installed when he bought it. These are really choked down with the catalyst exhaust, but with a Road 2 exhaust, drilled air filter, and a bunch of carb tinkering to deal with WOT fuel starvation, it is a fun scooter.

Only 2 miles is pretty darn amazing for sure! The whole "scooter in a crate" reminded me of the WWII "Jeep in a crate" (http://wwiijeepparts.com/Archives/WW2JeepsInCrates.html)

I've had several 2005 PX150's, and I too also noticed that they were severely choked down leaving the factory.
