Vietnam is populated with the highest number of motorbikes and scooters per capita in the world presently totaling more than 16.5 million. Its no surprise that vintage Vespas can be found amongst this huge and diverse range of two wheeled vehicles. Vietnam’s well known second name is: The Land of Motorcycles. From 1958-1971 the Vietnamese government set up a free trade direct shipping channel from Europe, during this time a great deal of Vespas were shipped in directly from Italy, predominantly by French business men realizing the massive market potential they could tap into. Vietnam’s ancient land is also known for its rich supplies of valuable antiques. Not only Vespas but many other vintage vehicles such as rickshaws, cyclos,mobylettes, Italian three wheeled cars and antique engine powered bicycles.

Vietnam is the star country for salvaging and restoring original vintage motorcycles and scooters.

Vespa Authenticity

We only seek out and restore Piaggio Italian made Vespas imported into Vietnam from Italy during the 60’s - 70’s. All our Vespas engine and chassis numbers match and are checked off against Piaggio’s original factory lists. The Vespas we restorre are 100% genuine items and that’s why they are a good investment. There are many websites that can be used to authenticate Vespas by entering the matching engine + frame numbers. The search will then reveal the year of manufacture and models details. See link below.

Each restoration takes approximately 1 months time of dedicated work. As classic Vespa lovers ourselves we put heart and soul into each individual restoration. The end result is an immaculately restored piece of history that is mechanically strong and reliable. Our 5 layer backed on painting process hardened and cured in a specially designed oven, then finished with several high gloss coats, assures a long lasting rust proof finish. Our Vespas run as factory new.(or even better as many of the new mechanical components are made from more modern and stronger alloys). The Engines are stripped down to their casings and rebuilt with new components imported from Italy. Everything is brought back to new condition including: New 150cc reconditioned Piaggio Italian Engine, New 4 speed transmission, New internal wiring, seals and trimmings, New brakes, New seating upholstery and much more.
