Stripping Valeria to the bone...

So this blog thing is harder than the vespa repair. It takes a long time and a lot of effort to stop what I am doing and take pictures and then write about it. I think I will have to do a post blog blog, and hope that my memory and the pictures I am taking are sufficient! In any case, let this pics do the talking. Check out the link for my picassa page for even more pics. Some serious work has been done, and my baby has been christened Valeria. You can see my workshop scattered with tools, random parts in various stages of (dis)repair and restoration. Good news is the body is all ready for metalwork and then paint. Bad news is that costs a lot of money so its going to have to wait. In the meantime I'm waiting for many many replacement parts from assorted online vendors. Hopefully in a week or so I will be getting the engine up and running. We'll see...
