The Vespa findings examined

Handlebar parts to at least VM1-VM2.

Yes, I couldn't resist a small wood box filled with Vespa parts on a veteran fair here in Sweden. Today I opened the box to really see what I had purchased. 

Most parts belong to a 1953 Vespa 125, VM1, faro basso. The seller at the fair said that he last year  sold a restored VM1 at the same market. But he couldn't tell if this is the leftovers from that restoration. The seller had more but other two wheel parts, so I guess he vacuums his neighbourhood for things to sell.

Yes, this was all his Vespa parts.

Spare wheel holder mounted under rear luggage rack.

Cover for clutch side.

Flywheel to a GS among all faro basso stuff.

Kick start lever, VM1-VM2

Intake from carburettor, also VM1-VM2. Also VL1-3?

Muffler for smallframe-

Dell'Orto TA 17B carburettor, for Vespa 125 U.

Findings at fair, o scambio

I went to fair for veteran vehicles this sunday. Not with big hopes, mostly parts for Swedish mopeds and for Volvo's and Saab's. And for american cars. Fun anyway.
And I managed to pick up some Vespa parts. Not in good shape as you can see but for a reasonable price. A mix from different Vespa's. A silencer for a smallframe, the engine is marked VM1 without the swing. Some handlebar parts also VM1, an extra cylinder with a broken piston, kick lever, rear mount for a sparewheel.
Crème de la crème? A Dell'Orto TA 17B carburettor! For the pre-VM1 Vespas.
