It's a truly awesome scooter Andy,

Rich'

Stunning..anyone that knocks that should try such a correct restoration themselves,, well done ,,

Not sure how anyone could knock that, superb. Sorry I do know why they would knock it, jealousy.

I thought you was selling it not so long ago.
no takers?

It's impressive and a credit to you having the patience to complete.

Can we all just admire the scooter here in Show your Ride fellas and discuss other issues if deemed necessary in Chit Chat

The LCGB run a forum where the membership can generally show off their scoots without to much negativity and id hate to think a good thread was being spoilt by a load of unnecessary chatter

Lets not discourage future threads from LCGB members folks

I admired your TV1 in all of the reference pics which you sent me privately to aid my own TV1 rebuild Andy!

Studied it closely in the metal on Saturday and it really is top notch! I'm coming to the end of mine soon with the delivery of a few more parts recently!

Thanks for your help over the last couple of years!

Another Lambretta with an incredible "wow" factor - absolutely stunning!

A stunning scooter Andy that inspired me while I was doing my sx standard build. Seeing it again makes me realise just how perfect it is.

Hi Andy, great scooter, what year is it? Wondering if the battery tray was a late addition as my series one doesn't have one but my series two does. Might need to source one.

Thanks

Keith

Unbelievable,well done.

Budgie, its a 59 model, very late with a frame number over 200 past the official cut off figure but not registered until December 1960. If your S1 doesnt have a battery tray its likely a non battery import model, i had one like it.
Craig, youre welcome mate, the least i could do.
Eden, yes i did have it for sale during another mad moment and did have two takers, one in Thailand and another LCGB member, no names but a prolific collector with a D racer amongst many others but have decided to keep it.
Thanks for all the comments, glad you all like it. Tbh its the first ive been back to my thread and just read Martins (weeks) comments, wasnt aware of any negativity...oh well..

Andy

One on an SD card i thought was lost, Eurolambretta Belgium, the Lambretta genius himself Mr Tino Saachi..

looks like he likes it also . Thumbs up from me , tis a thing of real ART G.

On another note how come all those Lambrettaristi have immaculate white
overalls not a spot of grease or oil anywhere whats with that ?
