Hello from Maine

Messaggio da carlo41 »

Hello, all -

My name is Carlo Spirito, and I live in Maine, USA. I am a 1st generation Italian American, and my family lives in Latina, Italia.
I LOVE the Piagio scooters and especially the ape! I build all types of dioramas, and often include a scooter. To see them go to www.carlospirito.com

Right now, I can't find or afford my own full-size Ape here in the US, but I am looking for a 1" scale Ape model, in any form or condition. If any of you can help me find one, I will appreciate it.

Regards, Carlo

Great restoration work, Ken. I can't afford a real one, so I'm still looking for a model version, in 1" scale (1/12 ratio).
Thanks for sharing and yes, 1941 was a good year!
