I like how nothing was taken off the LI when it was painted. Makes me think the previous owner didn't get in the motor and make it worse.
I should have been more specific about the TN thing. What does the frame stamping show?
Depending on what country you are in the motor numbers can matter. Also at this point in the scooter game it's all about original condition and matching parts. I've passed on projects in the US that were mismatched.

I've got a frame number 175vt3515373
And engine number 175yt3/515347
Not sure if the Y was a typo when sent to me. Anyone know where this scooter was made from the numbers?

Well, it was made in 1963 and the frame numbers are good for Italian.

No mystery. There's a lot of information here. You might need it when you find some more.

Yep your right, that was a lot easier to find it. Series 3 then the 5000 number?
