      Hi, maybe somebody know that I still have my Ciao Moped from the time when I was 16 years old. So this Moped is a 1974 Ciao L and I own it now for more than 30 years:D

      During that time the frame has seen a lot of colors, maybe 4 or 5 paintings over the years. And now it was time to restore it again as the frame was welded after a crack.

      let pics speak;)

      sand blasted

      ground painted

      and final painting

      I wanted to get the original Vespa color like on the fork in front but there is a little difference:(

      Will try to complete the frame in the next days.;)

            Excellent job once again! 30 year relation, wow, bet your wife’s jealous : -P

            Is the piaggio logo on the tube a sticker? Or how did you take it off?

              hehehe, my wife think that I’m crazy :haha
              But my son likes it.

              The Piaggio logo is a metal sticker. I disassembled it before painting and glued it back again after

                          Edjuh, yes I’m selling bushes. Let me know the inner diameter you need. Some forks have 12mm and some have 13mm inner diameter;)

                          Mike, I’m not sure yet if the MHR with DEPS is a durable engine for the ZZT10 in that frame. Need to check.
                          Second choice would be the Senna Bravo with 50ccm Kick Speed 😀

                          Martijnvanheerde, the paint was mixed by a car paint shop. So this is real uni car paint.They pushed the paint into spray tins for me as I don’t have a spraygun.

                              After 30 years your new paintjob will look like the old fork does at the moment 😉

                              I do really like the colour and ofcourse the very fancy malossi frontfork springs, i suppose they make your moped go 100km/hour ? :lol

                              You’re very talented in rebuilding old ciao’s, I have not seen any of your creations which didn’t end up as a beautifull moped… 😐

                                  😀 Arvid, 99,5 Km/h should be feasible with that springs.

                                  Everything is wayting now for the engine.

                                  The 2 1/4 X 17 tire fits well;)

                                  Today I got a nice flange for my special carburetor plate

                                  And a nice sticker about fuel mixing rate.
