Dirty Scooters - Lambretta Li 150 series 2 restore and 64 GL malossi 221

this blog is a record of my scooter projects. The Dirty Rocket is finished for now, and I am about to begin restoring a '58 Lambretta Li150 series 2. The Dirty rocket started out as an attempt to build my ideal scooter from a rusted bare heap for as little money as possible. (The frame is a '57 VNA) now a 64 GL frame.

Dirty!

It seems that we are the same person, living in an alternate universe on a parallel plane.

This being said I wish you the best for your Vespa fix up. Ill be keeping a close eye on your page over your ensuing restoration! Good luck with it!
