Non-Italian and yet a Vespa: a Vespino. And then even an original Dutch copy (NL B 1408 in ball head). In the time of Franco, the Spanish MotoVespa factory operated reasonably independently of the Italian parent factory. From there came this technical development in 1974; not from Pontedera. A lot of scooters derive their technique from this moped with its 18 inch wheels.
This 'barn find' is a real 'time warp', because it certainly stood 40 years in the basement of a bicycle maker with slight damage.
The 18 x 2.25 front tyre is still broken; the legs of the front fork could be replaced.
It makes a huge leap of time in one fell swoop, because it is now allowed to enter the world of oldtimers.
Such a Vespino rides well (after large maintenance) and you can also enjoy it during a ride out.
It is also still suitable as a 'daily driver'; It is that useful if you make it ready.
