Just found your vids and binge watched, brilliant content, keep being amazing 😊
Excellent job, nice to see a great paint job being left alone,
Loving it.....can't wait for next installment....
Well done mate! Just suscribed! Keep us posted ;)
I only have one word to say to you, Dude -- YIKES! But I'm all in...subbed and ready for the next episode!
Just posted part 3 today… no spoilers for the next 2 but enjoy…. It was emotional….. 😆
Looking forward to seeing the progress on this one😎 ....Harry
Pt2 is up now…
Can’t wait to see the next video 👍🏻
Just discovered your channel fella and loving it- keep up the good work!
Cheers fella!
That's about as bad as they come, worth saving though. Looking forward to seeing the end result.
Shit, I thought my 64 was bad, looking forward to seeing this come together Mate 👍🏻
I'm watching these in reverse... Didn't realise just how bad a condition this little guy was in! :0/
Great running in period 😁
Life’s too short for running in…
Oooo this is going to be fun.
I’m going to enjoy this 😀👍
Came across this by chance. Wonderful viewing. I've subscribed, hoping for many more similar
Yes I plan to do more of the same… I don’t know if there is enough time to find the right lambretta and event this year tho?!..
Good luck 👍🏻
BINGO... Great stuff.
Oooooh ive got wood.
I’m presently doing a full resto/upgrades on a 1979 GP. £7000 in already!
😬… luckily this isn’t a full resto!- just a get it going and ride it!
@@teampacemakerYou knocked it out really quick so fair play to you. Just watched part 2.
Mate... when someone suggested you need a challenge, they probably meant “climb Everest” or “row the atlantic”! Do-able stuff 🤣🤣🤣
😂
Good stuff we need more of this not £10.000 engines and 6.000 paint jobs affordable scootering.😂
Wow, thought mine was a shitbox, but apparently not compared to this!
Haha thanks!…. 🤔
Like the front dampers, are they BGM?
Yes mate… i would have preferred black ones but I’d already got these ones for another project
3 weeks (hope you have nothing else on the go;)
looking forward to the next 1
Yeah I full time job! 😃… some late night ahead……
Man was that souced in India? It looks like it sat in the jungle for some time. Glad to see your getting her back on the road. Can't wait to see the progress. Carry on.
It came from Spain!
Looks like an episode of Springwatch!! 🕷🕸🪲🍂🐌
😃😃 you don’t see the birds/rats nest under the seat too!- I lost the footage for that tho ☹️
Ok, how many of the pieces needed do you already have? Will say not the worst starting point I have seen, but I am sure it would be out of my capabilities to get it back on the road. Thank You for sharing.
You’ll have to watch the next one to find out! 😃, no i already have most of the missing parts but I wasn’t expecting the engine to be as bad as it was so iv had to change my initial plans for that … and spend some money 😕
This was more like mass destruction than disassembly. Why destroy the wiring harness and cables unless you have an A to Z inventory of rare spare parts? In this condition, a real restoration would take months, otherwise you would just be cobbling together a Frankenbike with mostly non-original parts. I guess with a three week deadline that's all you can do. But I must admit you've got me hooked. Waiting (patiently) for the next installment.
The cables were all rotted thru and totally unusable!… totally… I’v kept the wiring loom- what you see me snapping is the stator wires.. the loom is remaining… it’s not a restoration though I’m just saving it and giving it a new life.. just replacing the bits that are worn/broken and putting it back on the road to ride safely to Belgium and back (hopefully!!! ) the rally is on the bank holiday so I have 5 days left before I leave now… hopefully first start on Monday…. 😬😬
When you unscrewed the head sawdust fell out and gathering by the wood in the toolbox I think a previous owner must have got confused when she found out wood was “fuel”…….😂🤣💀
😆 possibly! Very possibly! … it’s crazy but it just might work…….
I’ve had sports Superbikes last 20 years sick of dodging cops speed cameras ans last few years been spending ages looking at scooters now after watch your channel especially these episodes I’m planning on joining the clan so time to do maths whether to buy a basket case and rebuild like this series or buy a ready done one . What’s your opinion sir
Bit of wd40 here and there
Fresh petrol and a wipe over with a cloth and she will be good to go 😂😂
Well it’s obvious that in that condition NO however if it’s completely rebuilt then obviously again it’s not the same scooter 🛵 we see in the photo 🤷♂️🤷♂️
@@jimeverhard3647 wtf of course it’s the same scooter… and engine… just with wheels and hubs added (obviously you can’t ride it without wheels!) and some essentials replaced- ie steering bearings, piston and barrel/ exhaust etc… only the essentials were replaced so it could be ridden-the body/forks and engine casing/gearbox/chaincase/kickstart/etc etc are all original…, I don’t get what you mean it’s not the same scooter?
Lambretta parked up for 3 hours.. can we get it to run and drive3 miles to the post office 🤣🤣🤣 sorry just had to..
A bit of isopon 38 and that air box will be good as new...😐🤣🤣🤣
Ha!, Airboxes are for mods anyway… we don’t need airboxes where we are going…
I take it it's on a SORN
No… iv just registered it… taxed and insured
@@teampacemaker hi mate I watched the full two videos on the lamberetta refurb it was a hypnotic mesmerising video congrats to your immense skills and interesting you kept the original paint job reminded me of the film Zabeinsky Point
Fakkin ell geeza!
The music is soo irritating
Well you can’t please anyone music wise… it’s not my first choice… but you can’t have the best music on your videos because of copyright… and it’s certainly better than hearing speeded up drill and machine noises?… 70,000 people have watch this 4 part series so far so it can’t be that irritating to everyone?
Annoying music over and over again…
😀 thanks, the tunes themselves or having music fullstop?
