  1. Its the recently rereleased italeri 1/9 vespa primavera , i dont know how old the molds are but I'm guessing ancient, flash is prominent ,and some detail is very poor, worst of all rubber tyres uggh, But as i used to ride, and restore old scooters back in the day, i was drawn to this ,among many scooters i owned the primevera was not one of them, but i know the small frame variety fairly well, theres some work to do, while the body work looks quite good (a couple of sink marks apart) the engine is a little poor on the molding side for its scale ,this is where I'm up for suggestions for nut and bolt detail parts, the real primmy had 8mm 10mm and 12mm nuts and bolts in prominance on the engine casing, and wheel hubs, and ,rims ,do i go resin or pe , , where do i get them from ? , if any of the detail builders here can help it will be very much appreciated ,modifications to cars and bikes (scooters) is not my area, but im up for trying ..,paint finish? Its not going to be a stanard single colour, in the early 80s custom scooters were the order of the day ,the body work will be standard, but 20 or so years ago many custom paint jobs used to pay homage to all sorts of subjects, this one will be ww2 fighters ,bombers, pin up ladys ,and the painting will be appropriate to this, so the kit and sprues First the chrome sprue , this won't do at all, it must come off, out with the oven cleaner The main body work , speedo will need a bit of a fettle The molded on number plate holder is also for the chop, Here you can see the engine casing devoid of nut or bolt detail And thats about it , some number plate decals and a couple of wire springs for the shocks , I shall begin
