I only just started on this '81 Hobbit, but now my wife wants me to build up her '78 instead cause she likes the low bars and saddle seat instead and the Elite needs tires, brakes and a valve job to pass inspection and reliable summer running. So something's gotta go.....

1981 Hobbit PA50-II. Good frame and good original paint, pretty tank and chrome vinyls but needs soaked, good chrome and rims, good cables, levers controls,unmolested wiring w CDI box, good headlight bucket and ring, huge d.i.y. doubles seat, rear signals, keyed ignition, decent front tire w a good thick heavy duty rear tire, nice subframe n pedal crank n chain w tensioner w airbox. Just add your motor, vario, pipe and plastics.

$200 pickup Pittsburgh

Pix soon. (edited)

decomp cable stuff and headlight glass (it was dead filaments anyway) gone.

Please get this thing while it's mostly all there and whole, sans motor.

@Les ... We still have a couple ciao's in the family a.t.m. and I'm sure another bravo/grande/si or three will end up making their way to our place soon enough :) (but I'm also sure that will happen the day -after- I run out of Vespa stash, ha!)

I prefer to sell this time but yes, I would cave in on a trade if its a clean complete full rigid square post stocker/runner ciao

Getting offers to part this further but I would reallllly hope it gets a new home whole.
