Rally for $4500, at least has been looked at by Motorsports. Yeah, has been redone and is missing details. Not a screaming deal but can be expensive to get into them, this looks like a decent starting point. ![]() |

This one is getting close to DOD territory. 76 VBC so should be 3 port. Looks like it has some OG paint too. May have been wrecked ??? ... and frame and fork need better pictures to make sure they are straight, but if they are... could be a fun one for the 60 over 8's love. ![]() |

$550 for an unseized P200 engine... body is toasted. I'd pop on it right now if I had a solid day to travel up and back. I'd rebuild and stick it in my VBA. Anyone local to Nashville want to earn a pick up/ short- term storage fee?

It's some kind of Vespa engine. Weird carb manifold and the old-style clutch cover with the word Piaggio instead of the logo.
For $60, it's definitely worth it, if it will ever get used. Somehow it has three photos from angles that tell you nothing about it. Last edited by hjo on Fri, 10 Mar 2023 02:13:04 +0000; edited 1 time |
