A friend's elderly neighbour took ill, and these came rolling out of the garage.
Pics shared by him over WhatsApp.

Hello fellow brethren of the automotive fraternity. I haven't been active on Team BHP for several years now, however I do visit every now and then, to full fill my thirst for the vast amount of knowledge the vintage car forum and its various threads have to offer.

I am in the process of restoring my Series 3 Lambretta which is neither a Li nor a SX but is a PK model sold for the Pakistani market back in the day. Story goes they came in as Knock down assemblies to be assembled in Pakistan and the frames were stamped at the assembly plant too. To my very limited knowledge on Lambrettas, The PK is cosmetically and mechanically a Li.

I am in the process of mechanically restoring the engine prior to indulging myself into a complete restoration. I would greatly appreciate it if someone could point me towards where I could get engine parts for it, Preferably in Delhi or Punjab. Shop names and contact details would be greatly appreciated so I could as a friend or a relative to pick them up for me and bring them across.

Warm regards

Samhassnn

This very rare 1954 Vespa has been restored in Bangalore. Great to see that this is back on the road.
