Hi Savyo,

Wish you all the best for your scooter restoration!! and do create a separate thread for your restoration process.
So that, the other members can also benefit.

Most of the Spares are available in Thane. Spare shops opposite Vandana Theatre.

You can call me, I will extend whatever support you require.
I have sent you a PM with my Contact Number.

EDIT: Somehow, I am not able to send you the PM.
You can share your email, mine is: sharmasanjeevin@gmail.com

regards,
Sanjeev

Thanks Shyam. Good see you on the thread :)

Bought the following today:

1. Seats (Front & Rear).
2. Wheel Rim.
3. Original Spaco Cable Set.
4. Front Mudguard Ornament, though not original but looks good. Can anyone help me getting the originall Fish ornament.
5. Minda Combination Switch.
6. Clutch & Front Brake Levers.
7. Gaskets for the Speedometer Housing (Clamshell).
8. Metal Flooring, the guy told me it is 19 Gauge. Seems to be very tough just like the scooters body.

As promised, some pictures which i clicked today:

Hello Sir, I too have just got a Piaggio Vespa 150 VBB ad its in great shape. I will be deeply obliged if you can advise me where I can buy parts and accessories in India? IM in Bangalore and know Pavan Kadam very well.

Pavan- Please let's have a talk. I just got a Piaggio Vespa 1964 in excellent condition. It needs engine tuning, Carburetor Cleaning, oil change and replacement of all cables, the Brake Pads are completely worn out and silencer needs to be replaced badly as the person who owned it earlier modified it to make it sound like a Motorbike.

I've been trying to call you for advice.. Please call me asap.

The Life has come to a Full Circle with respect to my Vespa-150.

In these 12 years post restoration, Mumbai weather clubbed with Open Parking has taken a toll on the Scooter. It will require restoration again.

And there is a dearth of Mechanics who can work on these machines in my area (Navi - Mumbai). Don't want to run behind mechanics for getting it into shape again.

Hence looking for suggestions for a proper restorer who can restore my Vespa to its former glory.

Please suggest good restorer preferably in Navi Mumbai. Mumbai can also be an option.

Waiting for your responses.

Friends, any contacts / leads on this requirement ?
It would be a Great help.

regards,
Sanjeev
