Vespa 50N 1/24

[Brizio]

I always wanted to build one of this Vespa, and finally I decided myself. I grow up with Vespas, different "small frame" and a the end l"arge frames" more comfortable for road trip. The kit is Tamiya in 1/24, the regular kit came in a box with figures. Mine didnt, I bought from a promo series in Japan. 

Here the kit. The Vespa is a 50N first model, with seat for one person, round headlight and 4 bolts rims. Later it was modified in few version. The most famous is the 50 Special. On the same body they also installed 125cc engine, like for the Vespa Primavera ET3. 

All the parts

I removed the seat

Now is time for exhause and fender to go

I cut also the motor side door

I open up all the slots, so air can go trough

The two half part of the body are glued together. I also cover the top part, where the gast tank will go.

The under body also received some work, like the place for the motor bracket will go

Here the gas tank part completed

I thought mine was neat because I made the steering work , now I see I could've taken it much further .
