Thanks guys. It was painted by a car bodyshop as I didn't have the facilities to do it myself. I took all the panelwork to him and he painted it for me. He'd never done a scooter before, and as they always say, he'll never do another one !. The frame is a 1965 Spanish Li 150 that I bought off Buzzsolomoto at a parts fair many years ago ( top pic ). It was that long ago, I only paid £40 for it !. The legshields, foot boards, headset and horn cast are all original Italian parts, the front mudguard and side panels are re-made ( again from Buzz ). The engine is a GP 125, with a ported 175 top end, 26 mil Jetex and Rayspeed clubman exhaust. I will be changing the engine when I have built the replacement for it. Just had it m.o.t'd and sent all documents off to DVLA for registration.
