on holiday in Mallorca at the mo. spotted this combo in a side street
while taking the pics the guy who owns it came out of his workshop,explaining its his daily ride, he needs to get it resprayed before sept as his daughter is getting married and wants to go to the church in it with the rest of the scooter club following , he's a blacksmith by trade . i tell him i have a lammy in the uk . he says he has two lammys and five vespas . he then leads me through an excellent untidy ,used workshop to a back room where he has his latest project
small frame with px disc forks and 200 lump
and another two vespas
then we go further into the back of his workshop
more vespas
oh and a series two tv175 totally original and complete which he rescued from 'the rubbish' as he put it. he had various old bikes in there all in need of tlc a genuine alladins cave . he is a real metal worker , with another garage down the street full of hand made items ,ornaments ,candleholders etc all finished by hand , a true oldschool blacksmith .
When in Spain

Love the Winter model. Looks like it still has the 60's tax stickers on it. Probably cost 150 pts a year
