I figured I'd con Brad into fixing it up and painting it. It would make a good camp ground cruiser. Anbody know the payload on one of these?

Nice. Looks a lot like Smittie's Allstate scooter (Vespa knockoff). Same color even.

That should be able to tote you around up to the showers with no problem Rooster. May we ask how much it cost? This reminds me of the good stuff those guys find on American Pickers. :)

Not a knockoff just rebadged.

Some Allstates were Vespas, some Cushmans and others Lambrettas.

Very nice Randy. A schoolmate of mine back in the early sixties had one of those.

Maybe we can go scootering together.
