Re: Keep your membership going
@lambrettalad my first 'machine' was a 1959 Lambetta LD which I bought in 1967 and had all the 'Mod' gear on including carriers and mirrors
I skimmed the cylinder head to up the compression and it really could go, but snapped the crankshaft once and had to replace that, then it started to eat drive shafts so it eventually went.
Your picture brings back a lot of happy memories though. I have a picture (somewhere) of me with it at the time, which I'll see if I can dig out and scan.

Our other car is a 2009 Citroen C6 3.0 HDi a 'future classic' and far rarer than a Morris Minor!!
The 'moggie' has been replaced with another 'classic' a 1953 Citroen Traction Avant 11BL

Re: Keep your membership going
HI
Iknow what you mean ,i had onein '67 and drove it with no clutch,(no bread man ) before the drive shaft let go! The LD was the last of the Lammys to have a shaft ,all moved on to chains. You did well to to tune it ,mine has a top speed of 45 down hill !!
I'm tuning it very soon I'm going on a diet !!!!!

150 and 175 and they had an electric start on the 175 and around 11 bhp but for me the Maicoletta was the best
