Ovviamente necessitava di un restauro ma alla fine quello che davvero importava era la sua funzionalità... il motore infatti abbisognava di una bella pulita ed oliata ma era in condizioni eccellenti !!! Dopo aver tolto la ruggine e l0ossido dalle superfici, ho colorato in nero e rosso questa splendida "signora" e ritoccato tutte le rifiniture in oro... niente male vero ?!?

Well done Francesco,
It is a different paint job than the original one, but it does look good, a bit more 'European'. Is this a matt black colour? Well anyway, I am impressed. Treasure it,
