Vespa Forks And Wheels



The forks are now built, this was hard to do with out scratching anything. The bearings in the end of the forks were especially fidley. I have also painted the wheels and have fitted the tyres also put on some whitewall tyre inserts. I'm very happy with the way they look and has given me a push to get on with the project and get in finished

Vespa Primer + Trim's




Got the frame mudguard and headset in to primer and have also painted the under sides blue. I like doing it this way better as it stops the over spray going every where and helps to keep the paint work shit free. I have also fitted trim's to the side panels, these came from scootrs and look nice but were a bitch to fit as they are solid stainless steel so it took lots of bending in the vice to get them to sit right
