Just bought this -
Mechanically, it's nearly perfect, but cosmetically it nees improving, and I know sod all about paintwork.
Quick background - I bought it off a chap selling it after buying 3-4 scooters off an unfortunate fellow who had develpoed health problems that had left him hardly able to walk, let alone ride.
Before he parked his bikes up he'd put a few scrapes in the bodywork of this one and had decided to spray them up properly. One of the others the seller had bought of this chap was a lovely old 60s Vespa in a lovely metal flake silver paint, which I believe he'd done himself. So he knew what he was doing, put it that way. Anyway, before he got chance to finish it, he'd been put totally out of action and was unable to complete the job.
What I have is a scooter with perfectly matching black paint all over, and hardly a mark in it, but it's dull on some panels, and you can see the join between new and old paint in a couple of areas (There's a small lip where it was masked off)
The seller (Who had 4 scoots in the garage, all old ones) had just checked it over and was selling it on because he liked the traditional style said it would be easy to get the paint smoothed out and polished up.... But didn't go into detail....
Anybody fancy helping me with the detail..?
