Brent J has one that needs a engine  ;D looks like you have found it for him  ;) and from the pic you have there it looks like a Minarelli engine. jimson

mmm..no different again..mine (when I finally get around to collecting the other I found a few months back that is ::)) are the piddly 50cc auto clutch jobs. Forks/front wheel maybe worth keeping Roger, Mini Betor's, a trick item back in the day on any trick mini ;)

Garry, it wouldn't be a bad little thing but..sadly I've not got the space, time, funds nor desire to take on any new bike projects. Another little vintage project that rolled out of Fisherman's Bend in 1953 has my attention for the duration ;)

out and about today so I dropped in and picked up the little beast I've been referring to of late :) it's not exactly as I remember it ( to start with, I thought it was blue and yellow but I only saw the yellow obviously ::)) Now I have no idea what model it is excepting the styling leads me towards '78-ish..any ideas anyone ??? fortunately it's mostly complete and pretty bloody close to being a functional thing albeit in need of a little loads of TLC ;)

cool little Italjet Von, looks nice mate 8) hopefully my little beast pictured above will come up nicely although after toying with it yesterday I was tempted to leave it original as the only items not original are the grips and the missing front number plate. After seeing yours I wouldn't mind restoring it ;)

Thanks Doc,the bike was in very good condition when I got it.
Was missing front plate,a mate had a genuine one off his daughters
long gone pr80.
I painted the tank,and put some new decals on,very happy with the way it turned out!
