The Restoration
It’s been 60 years since this Vespa was born and it deserved a complete restoration.
The Vespa was completely taken apart and a complete and professional restoration was performed from the ground up.
The Frame
The Vespa is a unibody frame and after 60 years on this earth rust is enviable. After a complete disassembly, the frame was dipped in Hydrochloric
Acid, this removes all the rust you see, and all of the rust you don’t see. After the acid bath the frame was repaired and then as an extra measure the frame was dipped in a
Hot-dip
galvanizing
process
of immersing the frame in a bath of molten zinc to produce a corrosion resistant, multi-layered coating of zinc-iron alloy.
Paint and Body
After
The frame was dipped in hydrochloric acid, any imperfections were repaired with “Metal Filling”  not bondo. (Bondo filling was never used,
bondo is body filling and a substandard way to fill imperfections in metal, it’s a resin of mix of talc and plastic and over time It cracks and discolors the finished paint job
) after galvanized to prevent rust, The frame was professionally painted with 3M primer and paint by a professional with 30 years’ experience of painting motorcycles and motor scooters.
Assembly
Everything that could and should have been replaced was replaced with original Vespa parts from the entire electrical system to every bolt, washer, and nut. The engine was completely rebuilt new parts, everything in the engine was replaced new with the exception of the original cases of the engine. This was as complete of a restoration as possible.
