This is the story of my '64 Vespa 150 - how it became mine and how it has given me a new vespatude.  I'll be recording the neat places I visit, the different things I do to make the Vespa my own, and - oh yeah - those reactions I get from both friends and strangers.

My Vespa's new heart?
I have been given a price on an engine for my Vespa. I'm hoping this will work out. If it does, then I could have my Vespa up and running in about two weeks.

Here's the deal:

Rebuilt PX150E
DR 177cc cylinder kit
Sito + exhaust
Six month warranty

Price: $1140.00

I had been looking for a Pinasco kit, but they don't seem to be available. Anybody know where I could get one? I don't mind the DR kit, but if there is a Pinasco one out there...

Just helping to get the word out to fellow scooterist that there is
a "brother" in need.

Zac Johnson from the Imperial SC in Atlanta was involved in an
accident Saturday AM. Zac is the creator and moderator of
www.stellaspeed.com (quite possibly the best resource on the net for
stellas and P series vespas). Zac is also a husband, and as of two
weeks ago, a father.

He is currently hospitalized and in a coma with multiple skull
fractures and breathing on a ventilator. You can learn more about
Zac, his accident, and his family's need for prayer and community
support by visiting www.stellaspeed.com or by checking out the blog
that has been set up to keep friends and family up to date on his
condition. http://zacsfund.blogspot.com/
