I looked at this thinking Yea Baby! 201? Challenge killer!!! mobile for the right price!
I like em crunchy, but this is the powered crumbs at the bottom of the cereal box.
All of the body panel attachment locations look like grandmas lace tablecloth. It's one of those that you need to think?; that half the body is going to fall off getting on the trailer and the remaining body is going to blow off trailering it down the road. One minutes to look it over, stayed another minute for kindness, and 10 minutes listening to "how negotiable" the price is.
Said that he had an offer from one guy that wanted to make a barbeque smoker out of it...but he said that this "needs to be back on the road"!? Correctly spelled "Bianchina".
Yes, that is an electric motor where the gas motor goes.
I left feeling so happy! but yet kinda sad.

Not quite. The Bianchina was Fiat 500 based and the french made Vespa was its own thing. They just look shockingly similar and have almost identical specs.

Humm? Probably.... Its not packing the factory 24 cubic inch motor.
In reply to Gasoline:
I'm still on the hunt for an affordable original 500 to stuff a bike engine + snail into....something like this would be a cantidate, but from the sounds of it is too far gone.
Want to build a Bianchina for my wife. Only one locally went to the crusher. More rust then metal. Shame.
Say you made it safe enough to be road worthy, would it be worth any real money?
Yes. I'd have to do research but all vintage small cars and Fiat 500 cars are on the up.
