Re: I need help hunting down my dad's Lambretta
Hi Colin.
Many thanks I've just joined Facebook! (never thought I'd do that in my lifetime) and I've sent the guy a pm.
Roughly how much for a straight TV175 please and a nice 150 special?
Cheers
Kris

Re: I need help hunting down my dad's Lambretta
Its a TV for sure,front disc brake,shockers on front forks and SX/TV style headlight and honcast. That looks great. Love the numberplate. Cheers. Do the side panels style denote a year? I'd say 62-63 here's my 63 http://i1066.photobucket.com/albums/u408/psychedelicropcircle/Canada2012272_zpsee67456...

Hi.
Many thanks for the replies, I've been having a look through Gumtree,ebay etc for scoots it's a bit of a minefield but in the next few months I will find one that we are both happy with.
