Repair Sheet Floor Board for Vespa 50-125/PV/ET3 Vespa 50-125/PV/ET3 w 420 mm, l 530 mm, oiled, 1 'X', 1 'X&K', 2 struts Grade C - low-priced repairs Regrettably, most older Vespas have collected a fair portion of dents and rust in their panels. This is not only ugly, but can also draw unnecessary attention from your local vehicle inspector or traffic policeman. In earlier years such damage had to be expensively repaired by specialists, but now we have a simpler solution in the form of complete body-panel replacements available from stock. Floor Boards, Repair Sheets, Body-Panels - There is a wide choiceThese replacement body-panels vary, according to model, in their width, the struts included, the openings for the operating cables and occasionally the size of the brake pedal opening. Certain smallframe body-panels come already equipped with the 'X' and 'K' reinforcement struts, which are firmly welded in position. The complete range of replacement body-panels possess a mounting crease for the legshield beading and are unpainted, but oiled. They are also available in various lengths, with some including the curve. These longer types allow repair to damage to the original frame work below the front mudguard area. The 70cm long type reaches halfway up the mudguard and the 90cm version to the lower edge of the horncover. Most of these floorboard replacement panels also possess brackets and channels for the routing of the control cables, although these detailed features are not present on the more economically priced items in the range. The premium version of these body-panel replacement parts is represented by the type that includes both the legshields and floorboards in one piece. This item simplifies the most major of body-panel repairs and also any evidence of previous attempts to unnecessarily 'individualise' the design of the scooter with an angle grinder or similar! Many hours of welding, grinding, hammering, sanding and filling can be saved by replacing the complete assembly, although to be fair, some are delivered without the reinforcement panels in place. Low-priced repair or true to originalWe have high-quality floorboard panels produced by small Italian panel-beating workshops, like Sandro Carlucci, CUPPINI or others in program. This variety of manufacturers helps avoid problems with inconsistent availability. The more economically produced replacement body-panels are not as precisely manufactured so their lengths and reinforcement strut arrangements can vary from the expected norm. This makes it essential to always check the compatibility of the new panel BEFORE it is welded in place, giving you a chance to modify and adapt the part preceding its permanent positioning. Notice : We also have the metal replacement horncovers available for all models of Vespa that had them fitted, along with many other types of replacement body and frame panels! Conclusion : Cut out the old panels, weld in the new, fill, sand and paint and once again your scooter has been reborn! SIP-TIP : Do not forget to order new floor runners and rubbers, legshield beading and a new horncover. A riveter and a beading applicator makes the whole job a lot easier and professional. The Vespa and PIAGGIO badge represent the icing on the (birthday) cake! Robert Steininger, Vintage Vespa icon, Vienna, Austria: “Sandro Carlucci. Sandro is an extremely dedicated Vespa mechanic and specialised his expertise many years ago with the production of sheet metal replacement frame parts for his beloved make of Italian scooter. The footboards and frame creases, etc. are completely 100% identical to the original factory dimensions and stand head and shoulders in manufacturing quality above the items available from the far-east of Asia. Every single occasion I have required a particular frame part for any Vespa restoration project I have always been helped by Sandro. In my personal opinion the frame parts he produces are absolutely peerless in their quality.
