Starting this month, (Dec 2005), we'll be updating you on what Lambrettas are selling for in the Italian swap meets, the prices are a bit different from what we have in North America but at least you can see what they are really going for in the motherland instead of taking cousin Guido's word for it that they all cost $100 bucks...keep checking back as we add more scoots each month...
1948-49 B at the 05' Dueville meet in the province of Vicenza was $ 3,840.
