1983 Vespa 50 special with a 110 DR kit. My first real attempt at getting a non-runner on the road, as you can see it's far from perfect as I had no time and little budget for the bodywork. Also lack of facilities as you can see from the tent! Main task was to get it on the road for the summer for my son which was achieved last weekend. Learnt loads although very steep learning curve ;D As I bought it  The workshop!  Original engine  The joys of spraying outside!  Sprayed  Proud dad!!!  |

It's gonna stay like that for a couple of years as my younger son will use it next, then it's a full resto for my missus to keep! Now looking for a house with a garage to go with it ;D

Nice scoot chap- good to see someone build a decent bike on a budget and lack of facilities |
