Rides nice

Other than putting on a rear rack, I haven't done anything to it. This Lambretta just runs and rides nice. I won't be doing much to it this winter since I'll be spending my time restoring my Vespa GS. One of the scooters needs to be running and I don't have enough attention or room to have two scooter projects at the same time. Here's a shot of both the TV175 and the GS.

My 1962 Lambretta TV175 as I bought it

When I got the TV175, it was in great shape. The motor runs strong and smooth. It starts first kick. Cosmetically, it has a few blems, but so do most vintage scooters. Eventually, it'll receive a thorough refresh, but for now, we're enjoying it as is.

The worst thing about it is someone decided to spray white paint all over the legshield, fender, floorboards and rubber trim. Unfortunate, but easy to fix....later.
