I would be happy to post up some picts for you, however, no small digital cameras back then, in fact at 17 yrs. old, I did not even own a camera. I still live close to the beach in the same area so perhaps I can take some picts this spring/summer when the weather warms up so you can get a taste of what I was looking at back then. Wink

I'm not really into the Italian stuff, but I do have a couple of Cushman scooters.

Finally spring here in the northeast! Took the first ride of the season as temps crawled up into the 70s, with my white 64' GS160 Vespa, just completed over the winter. My red Vespa is a 67' SS180, all original paint and only 2400 miles, pic of that one was from last fall.

Here are a couple of mine. This one is a 1949 Powell P-49. It's pretty cool, the seat serves as the gas tank, and the engine uses dry sump oiling. This thing is extremely rare!

This one is an original 1963 Cushman Super Eagle. It's kinda rare too since it's got all of the deluxe options, but has the small 5hp motor. Kinda like having an SS Camaro with a straight 6.

this is you? picture has got to be from 68/69. nannucci mudguard, no side panels etc. hairs a little long for the style of scooter. did your fashion follow the scooter getting the hard look? ie short crop, Bovverboots?
