All of the 150cc models used the beautiful "clamshell" speedometer which was also used on the G.S. The 150 had a "Vespa 150" badge riveted to the right side of the legshield. The Vespa and Vespa 150 badges were made of flat aluminum. They had a similar layout to the later motors, but were not rotary valve. Bottom LineThe Vespa 150 is a robust scooter and capable of use on today's roads.
Will post pics tomorrow but... YES I think that early VBB1 were very similar bodywise to VBA. ⚠️ Last edited by ggmax01 on ; edited 1 time I have a very early ('61) VBB. 4 speed...nothing above the clamshell speedo except that little "crest".I bought it when i was 18 from a neighbor back in Italy.

Italian Repro Engine Side Cowl Vespa VNA/VNB/VBA/VBB/Allstate (082906)Premium quality reproduction cowls "Made in Italy" that are far nicer than anything we've seen from Asia (Indonesia, Vietnam, or India). The Vespa restoration craze that has been growing in Italy has created a demand for these replacement cowls, so we finally have a suitable replacement. These were previously only available from Asia sources which were horrendous (often handmade), so we are grateful to have a nice quality option available. These are the best quality you will find anywhere (short of finding a NOS one, good luck with that). They will need final metal prep work, minor body work, and priming before they will be ready to paint.

If you feel you must, please put it at the very end of your list at least a year away. Yeah, your bike & stuff, but hard to tell you how strongly I believe you'd thank us later. I love the bike AND how you just dove right in, including going inside the motor with your homemade tools. The worst of these are when something major is irreversible.In other words, PLEASE don't repaint this scooter.
Together with the Fiat 500, Piaggio’s unmistakable Vespa scooter was designed for a purpose: to get post-War Italians moving again. Hugely successful in that cause, the Vespa soon transitioned from cheap, utilitarian transport to a fashion icon: the chosen steed by London’s “moderns”, or Italian-suited Mods, against their leather-clad rivals at the next café or seaside town, the Rockers. The Wasp, or Vespa, on offer here was professionally restored to a very high standard in Italy about 15 years ago. It was then imported to the US and remained on static display in a private collection since. It is accompanied by its original Italian registration booklet and import papers, and the rare, original Italian dealer key fob.
