I suppose I'll be around here for a while, might tell some backgroud story's..
It all started with this old rusted piece of metal, I was fifteen when I bought it from a friend of mine.
So I started spending all my savings and learned a bit of tinkering, with the help of my brothers and my father!
So when I turned sixteen, I had a nice Vespa (everybody loves a nice Vespa )
Went on holiday to Luxemburg, really nice trip
Then I wanted something new, so I bought this!
Went thru various stages
Then it finally started looking a bit better
I sold the Vespa, so I bought something else
Stripped
Then painted
Modified the steering
So it would look more like the Vespa ..
Then I crashed the Honda cb50, so a better front brake was made
Between the Volvo-time I am working on the C70
Oo.. and this is me
This is me in my dads car
This is also my dads car, both Fiats are completely restored
Oo, I was working in Amsterdam last year, and I walked into my old Vespa I had sold three years before.. Rather sorry looking, the new owner did not care for her..

Motorcycle evilness abounds - an awesome collection. I know someone else who 'walked into' a motorcycle one day before starting a new job (in fact, it was the owner of that Yugo in my other post!!) and he came round about 50 feet up the road... lovely bikes, but take care.

Re: Joris
Not a massive bike fan but old bikes are still fun. Never had a bike myself but my eldest brother has always been very much into two wheeled transport. He is currently building his own bike from scratch where he works in Norway.

Re: Joris
When I was younger (ha-ha I'm 22 now ) I always wanted them to go as fast as they could. Now I just like to drive them around not always going full throttle!
So, with enough work on the Volvo, the study and the Honda c70 a though I would buy another one...
It's a Honda c50, original dutch moped, so completely rotten! but it has registration
I'm thinking of using this image as inspiration
