1983 PK80S Automatica for $575 in Pensacola, Florida

Here's a rare scoot to see in the U.S. only 5,114 of these ever made. This was a belt drive Vespa. This would probably make a good parts bike for someone already working on a PK50, PK80, or PK125. It's my understanding that parts for these are hard to come by. It doesn't look like the motor that should be in the PK80S though I could be wrong. Anyone have any useful info on this scooter, please share. http://pensacola.craigslist.org/mcy/1621176789.html

1964 Vespa GL for $1,200 in Menomonie, Wisconnsin

Here's a nice project for someone. It says it's complete and just recently painted. Too bad the GL never came in black and if it was me the new paint job would be a negative not a positive selling point. Still, the Vespa GL is a rare scoot and you don't see too many of them around. The price is pretty decent if this thing really is complete. Here's the link and the photos. http://madison.craigslist.org/mcy/1619935250.html

1978 Vespa P200E for $300 in Oakland, California!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Any Vespa P series is a great scoot to start with. This one would make a fine project for someone, even with a missing top end. This is a steal even for a project scoot. Someone go snatch this up! Here's the link and the photo. http://sfbay.craigslist.org/eby/mcy/1622571398.html

1964 Allstate 125 for $500 O.B.O. in New Orleans, Louisiana

Here's a nice project scooter for those of you that like to start with a box of parts. I'm starting to like Allstates simply because they're very affordable being on the low end of the Vespa spectrum. I'm cheap though. This could end up being a nice scooter with a little investment and some time. Here's the link and the photos. http://neworleans.craigslist.org/mcy/1615903668.html

1980 Vespa P200E for $1,425 in Olympia, Washington

Here's a Vespa P200E which is a great starter scoot for someone at a really good price. The scoot looks a little dinged up but that's going to happen, now you don't have to worry about doing it. I'd say this is a damn good deal. Here's the link and the photos. http://seattle.craigslist.org/oly/mcy/1612718572.html

Vespa for $75 in Portland, Oregon

Okay I usually don't post stuff like this. This is a great deal if you're looking for a frame or some cowls, or maybe a headset. I'm assuming there's a motor in this thing since the rear wheel looks like it's attached. It's hard to tell from the photo what this is. It looks like a mish-mash of a Vespa. The headset looks strange on the VBB body? It could just be the odd colors that are throwing me off. Anyways, heres the link and photo. http://portland.craigslist.org/mlt/mcy/1613699493.html

1980 P125X for $1,775 O.B.O. in Indianapolis, Indiana

Here's a very nice looking P125X for a very good price! The person selling says they just replaced the seals and did all the necessary work to get it running in tip top shape. I'd say this would be a great first scooter for anyone. Here's the link and the photo. http://indianapolis.craigslist.org/mcy/1610804234.html

1963 Vespa VBB for $1,200 in Brooklyn, New York

You don't see this everyday! A running Vespa VBB for $1,200. Look at this thing it still has the original paint! This is a pretty damn good deal. Someone go snatch it up! Here's the link and the photos. http://newyork.craigslist.org/brk/mcy/1611131712.html

Vespa Sport 100 and 1957 Fuji Rabbit for $777 O.B.O. in San Diego, California

These are some nice looking projects. I especially like the Vespa Sport 100. I wonder if that paint is original on the Rabbit? I'm not sure if this person wants $777 or if he is just trying to get the highest bidder. If you got either one of these for $777 I'd say you got a good deal. Here's the link and the photos. http://sandiego.craigslist.org/csd/mcy/1611192828.html

1972 Vespa PL 170 100cc for $750 in Denver, Colorado

This thing is one odd scoot and at first I thought it was some weird bodged scooter but it's the real deal. There was an article in scootering in February 2008 about these scoots. They are Indian made with both Indian and Italian parts. The factory shut down, in the article there are pics of it. Apparently everything was left and very few of these even made it out. They were made for the local market in India. Anyways, you can find parts for these and I imagine that this is probably one of a handful that ever made it to the U.S. I actually lke this thing. So, if you're in the market for an odd Vespa this is probably for you. Here's the link http://scoot.net/classifieds/forsale.html?id=20276

1979 Vespa P150X for $1,500 in Minneapolis, Minnesota

This person has 2 scooters for sale but the P150 is definitely the one I'd go for. A pretty good price at $1,500. Here's the link and the photo. http://minneapolis.craigslist.org/ram/mcy/1600451980.html

1964 Allstate for $500 in Memphis, Tenessee

Here's a nice running project for someone at a very fair price. You don't see that particular front rack too often. I'd say this would make a very nice project for someone. Looks like someone rattle can painted it at some point. Here's the link and the photos. http://memphis.craigslist.org/mcy/1607196562.html

1961 Lambretta Li125 seriesII for $1,500 in Milwaukee, Wisconsin

Great garage find Lambretta here! Looks like it's all original and has a title. The motor is stuck and the kickstart is slipping but it's still a good deal in my opinion. This thing is awesome, go get it! Some really nice Lambrettas have been popping up lately. I hope I run into one near me soon.Here's the link and the photo. http://scoot.net/classifieds/forsale.html?id=20310

1960's Lambretta Li125 SeriesIII for $1,700 in Minneapolis, Minnesota!

Dang, I wish I lived in Minneapolis right now because this scooter would be mine, at least until my wife killed me for buying too many scooters. This thing looks great, and I think that paint is original. A rough but restorable Series III Lambretta Li125 should be priced between $800-$1,500 One that is in excellent original condition can be worth between $3,500-$4,500 I'm not sure what category this falls in but I'm thinking the latter. It's a damn good deal either way in my opinion. Has the original dealer sticker! Anyways, here's the link and the photos. http://minneapolis.craigslist.org/hnp/mcy/1606627516.html

1966 Allstate/Allsprint. I'm picking this one up soon.

I'm really excited about the Allstate that I found, or I should say.....found me. A really nice gentleman stumbled upon my blog and was looking to sell his wifes old Allstate that him and his wife have been dragging around the country for 26 years or so. He sent me photos and I fell in love with this scoot. I plan on keeping everything original on this bike. I'm going to go pick it up in a few weeks and I'm really looking forward to this project. Anyways, here's the photos. I'll probably start a new blog documenting from the picking up of the bike to the finished restoration which won't entail much. It should only need some new seals, new cables, tank cleaned and coated, carb rebuild, seat re-apholstered, and new tires.

1962 Vespa VNA/VNB for $1,000 in Knoxville, Tennessee

Here's a good find but in my opinion it's on the high side as far as price goes. The VNA/VNB should only be around $600-$1,200 in rough condition. I'd say that this is rough but restorable. If you're looking for a VNA/VNB than you might pay more but I'd say $1,000 is a little high. The body does look fairly straight. Anyways, here's the link and the photos. http://knoxville.craigslist.org/mcy/1605399244.html
