Looks nice, more pics required

Very Likey! Bodywork burnished then laquered?

Think I recognise the rear light unit as one I am lining-up for my Lambretta project: will discus a few critical dimensions with you soon if that is OK?

(Maybe some less 'retro-bling' grips and re-locate the tax disc holder as it spoils the curves?)

Very pretty that, some ladies are sexy when they're a bit fat. Lovely scoot mi duck.

Cheers guys, more pictures on the thread above, started the thread in the wrong section so just carried on with it. The rear light cost around £15, the only thing is you need to cut a 20mm diameter hole to fit the light fitting to the scooter and two M5 holes for the bolts, twin filament bulb, I think 100mm diameter in total. I will post the link for the light when you need it.

Its 80/100 hours with wire brush on grinder and then its clear powder coat lacquer, didn't bother fixing welds, rust affected areas or dents, the old braising welds look excellent under the clear powder.

Great job.

Lovely job that Gary.... There's not a bit of it that I could pick fault with - that clear powder coat finish is simply stunning ...

Doh i thought i was the only one doing that sort of finish mines not finished yet though
Ive added a some colour to mine today

Have you got anymore closer pics of your finish ?

XTra Respect! Cant believe it till I see it! Want it to be true? A 'Sportique/ 152L2/ VBA' frame with panels that do not need filling?

Lovely that, how did the front disc set up work out? Worth getting?
