Ready for Painting

The trip to Estonia was amazing, what a country. I would recommend you put it on your list of places to see. The trip got the thoughts on the tribute Vespa back on a positive note.

Soon after returning home it was time to pick up the panels following sandblasting.

Next step was to get the frame and panels to Paddy Duffy so he could start working his magic on them. First thing was to address all the areas that had previously suffered from rust. Using an anti-rust stopper filler then some fine sanding in preparation for painting

The floor section of the frame and sections of the top part needed the same treatment, the water logged seat had caused some corrosion on the top of the petrol tank and the frame edges around the tank.
