Just put a deposit on this machine although it needs quite a lot of work! :shock:
I think the orange colour on the horncast looks original to the scooter. Anybody have any info on this?https://www.flickr.com/photos/135994003@N02/51930596484/in/dateposted-public/https://www.flickr.com/photos/135994003@N02/51930595574/in/dateposted

Horncast looks to be Rosso Corallo 8065 that has faded. Red does not hold up well to UV exposure. Looks like a fun project!

Sadly, I can’t Kew all the photos on flickr but it looks like the grey rubber down the horncast have caught a bit of white paint in their lifetime.

Is there any evidence of white paint on the engine mounts? That would be nice. Take good care of the headlight rim.
