  • What happened to the rear rack? I have been looking for one forever....

  • Hi there, just doing a series2 myself. Not to hot on the electrical side of things yet. Did you convert it to 12v or did already have the battery in it?

  • @bird1751 thanks... she is probably the one i treasure the most...

  • @lammydave i love so much your lammy i favorite heheheheheeh amazing work mate be proud!!! im sure you treasure it :)) i would love to have one again I had one in brasil sold to move here and miss one like crazy my was blue and white 1960 Li150 ..how i dream to have another like it or like yours :)

  • what a lovely scooter, did you spray it yourself ?

  • yes, all the paintwork was carried out by me in my back garden... thanks for the comments

  • the series 2 front guard was always an off put for me ! but lovely job anyway ! ! well done nice scooter

  • Only a woman has finer curves.

  • That's a seriously beautiful series 2 Lammy! You have done a superb restoration job here.What a fantastic looking machine the series 2 is.I wish the motor manufacturers would go back to these classic designs,they have far more character and soul than anything produced today.Happy scooting :-)

  • Nice work Dave. Great seeing an old classic brought back to life. Seies II is my favourite model too, I think. How's the GP rebuild going?

  • yep ... S2 .. simply the best. GP all done now, just got to get it registered.

  • Nice Job!

  • hi nice scooter!

    How much did u pay for it before restoration? I found one but Im not sure if I would be paying too much for it. It is in the same condition as your was.

  • thanks for the comment...

    a fair price here in the uk for an unrestored one in similar condition would be around £800 GBP

    hope this helps

  • Is the tune by Modern Romance ??It sounds very familier. Enjoyed the posting,good luck my friend.

  • thanks for the comments..

    the tune is by herb alpert and is called "rise"

  • great job. I have a lambretta Jet 200.

  • Hi, scooter looks great! What was the hardest thing about building it. Just got a series 2 125 and about to rebuild it. Really enjoying it so far but i know its not all gonna be fun.

  • As this was the 2nd one i had done, most of the work was quite easy and rewarding. What i did find is that the series 2 is a more robust machine than the series 3, and all the panels seem to fit a whole lot better .. probably my favourite lammy, but i am about to start on a GP, so that may take precedence, we'll see!

    thanks for the comments

  • great job ,

  • Where did you get this music mix? I LOVE it! I love this clip, too... it's a great reminder that good "before" photos are oh-so-important. Thanks for posting it, and please let me know where to find that mix. Thanks!

  • thanks for the commebts, everyone...

    the music is by Herb Alpert and is called "Rise"

  • The series 2 is the best looking by far. Good job u did there. I've just got my hands on one too and it's really funny but mine has a piece of tisue in the carburator outlet as i type! So funny. I hope mine turns out as good as yours! Sweet.

  • No plans for getting a luggage rack/spare wheel holder? (that's what the four holes above the tail light are for...)

  • hey mate, u seem a bit of a lambretta expert! unfortunately i can not afford an old lambretta bt i am looking to buy one soon. the company it is made by is tamoretti. if u look for lambrettas on the autotrader websyte im sure u will find it somewhere near the top, if not its on scooter central ... google that. neway getting to my point i was wondering what you thought of the bike and is it value for money? once agen thanx

  • unfortunatly, i have no knowledge of tamorettis ... all i can say is, you can still get lambrettas cheap-ish .. try sam at lambrettafinder (google it) he is in belgium, you can pick up a running scooter at a reasonable price ... dont know where you are, but for us living in the south east, delivery is free!! .. then you can restore is at you go!!

    wait for a lambretta, true style!!

  • Amazing job, taking care of all the details.

  • i was just curious...im about to start on a 67 lambretta 125 starstream...im excited and nervous...any tips?

    thanks again and great job !

  • hi, the only tips i can offer are.. take your time bodywork is all about preperation ask for help! (lcgb website) buy parts from people you trust expect problems .. it's a lambretta take lots of photos when it's done, be proud! good luck david
  • you did a great job how long did it take you?

  • well, my first one took 18 months ... but this one was really speedy ... about 6 months!! I am at full time work, so only get to work on them now and again, plus i have to do all the spraywork outdoors, so it has to be a warm, sunny day with no wind, which all adds to the timescale!!

    thanks for the comment

  • Riding away on it would be a nice ending!

  • very nice
