Anyone interested to see another build thread... TV200 1965....

My Two 1965 TV200s. One with, one without chrome ring. Just finished the dry build of the one on the bench at this point. Basically an S Type inspired scooter. Not strictly sticking to a definitive S Type spec but along those lines.

Just back from paint on Christmas Eve. Very nice job too!

Just waiting on parts delivery to progress with the build.

Looks like it's going to be another stunner. 8-) Maybe a reversal of the colours used on the non chrome ring TV? Did you manage to persuade Pete to do the paint?

It's getting there... Another list of small parts to order to make a bit more progress. The engine casings are with Rimini Lambretta centre having some repairs and acid dipping polishing done, so that will be built upon its return.

Panel work etc is being painted next week. Until then I've got some small bits and bobs to finish.

Yes Trev Petes doing it...... Certainly won't be using Streetbeat again for my paintwork.

It's an S-Type paint scheme..... VW Blackberry, new white and it'll have some subtle gold leaf too.

Plastic cable ties are just a temporary measure until I receive the cable oiler bracket I have on order... Then I can fix all of the cables permanently with alloy cable ties. ;)

I bet your bum looks good on that seat.

'Tis a thing of beauty... The seat that is.

Mind you, it is so good it'd make my fat arse look handsome.

Looking forward to more build pics.
