i want to know: whats the car in the background on the trailor?

In reply to DukeOfUndersteer:

I believe that it's Fiat Autobianchi.

*EDIT....Autobianchi Bianchina?

Wow...a Bianchini and a Fiat 600d in the same house. There is either something very wrong or very right with the owner.

It's a Vespa. Says so at the bottom of the E-bay ad.

I stand corrected.

Nothing that a Hayabusa motor wont fix, pronto.

or a swift GT twin-cam at either end...

500's were once glamourous, not cute or cool:

For once, something I'd like that's not in the Atlanta area.

I have a Vespa just like it in red. Goofy little car that makes my Bugeye look like a Hummer. Always thought a modern bike engine would be a ton of fun in it, but I've always had too many other projects.

Marketing. Everything Italian is sold as glamorous, but when it was new, wasn't it an economy car? I'm guessing the average driver looked more like Sofia Coppola than Sophia Loren.

A guy stopped by our British car club meeting one weekend driving a Vespa. Very neat LITTLE car. I later saw him driving on some back roads.
