My 1966 Vespa is gone. I took it for a short ride and then loaded it on a trailer. 3,400 miles on it . Stored for 29. Years in a garage. It took a shot of starting fluid an 4 kicks to get it going. I drove it around the block. The tires won't hold air for more than a week and the gears were all oner the place. Bulbs are dead but horn worked and beakers work.
 
I have not driven it in 30 years I had promised myself I would fix it. Fixed they are worth $4,000 . Forgot about it for years. I never thought it would even run. Only a little over 3,000 miles . Well I still have. 3. And room for. A 4th ;)
 
Pictures taken of Honey riding it in 1968 before my brother in law pulled an accidental wheelie and scratched it all up. It was later painted RED. The guy that bought it is a relative said I can ride it when he is finished He is going to get it back to original color
