eBay Auction of the Day: 1966 Vespa
Written By: Seyth Miersma
This amusing eBay Motors auction is for a 1966 Vespa (Piaggio?), complete with a really sweet little sidecar, and rendered in faux Military spec. While true Vespa purists are bound to find more than a little unholy about this setup, the seller, a self-confessed “Mopar guy,” seems to have tackled fitting out of his scooter with gusto and a sense of humor.
The bike comes complete with canvass saddlebags, a camouflaged blanket, collapsible shovel, and at least two spare wheels. The olive drab paint just goes to further prove that those classic Italian lines can stand up to just about any color one chooses to slather on. Scooter on.
