Footboard would look like this for these early models. Seeing if I have a plastic I can take a pic of as well...

you would also see a half circle cut out on the L bracket the footboard attaches too

What is this hole for?
What was Ferdinando thinking about it ? :)

There is a small hole on the cross member of an early TV,kickstart side only.
I was thinking that the previous owner did it.

I found this:

Antivibration Plugs: The Series 3 machines had 4 anti-vibration plugs fitted to the flywheel cowling from the following frame numbers:
TV 175 (Series 3) - frame number 508889 onwards

What year was the metallic blue paint introduced and where is the best info for the Series 3 TV range please.

The reason for asking is that I'm interested in buying a S3 TV175 and am trying to gather as much info before I start looking at one to buy.
Obviously I have this site for reference, British Lambretta Archive and Sticky's book which all provide good info... just wondered if there are any further sites etc I might be unaware of?

Hi folks, was after a bit of information regarding the Series 3 TV 200.
I've just been to look at one over the weekend and the frame number
has the correct TV3 prefix followed by a frame number 5490++ but the frame
is non chrome ring.I know that the very last few 200s and 175s didn't have
the chrome ring but were they changed this early ?

If anyone can shed any light on this it would be really appreciated.

Regards Mark
