Hi,
i bought a few days ago my second APE: a french TriVespa APE
I have a framenumber, but no idea when the APE was build. On the internet there is not much information on TriVespas.
Can someone tell me how I can find out when the APE was build?
The fork is on the left side, but the pictures i have seen from Trivespas on the Internet - it looks like even '56 Trivespas have it like this...
Thanks a lot!
Regards
Tom

Re: APE TriVespa Serial Number
contact Pedro through his website - www.vespadoc.com - you're probably going to need some manuals and his prices are fair. Tell him Ken in Canada sent you - Ken

Re: APE TriVespa Serial Number
hi, thanks for the answers.
i have checked that page already.
from what i found out so far is, that french only produced from '53 - '56. in fact they have different frame numbers. the dont have the prefix AB1T.
what you find is as frame number is 4 digits stating with 'T' - like: Txxxx.
a friend of mine has on his triporteur T31xx and on the ACMA plaque it says 1954. On mine the plaque is missing - but frame number is 32xx.
So it will be 54 or 55... there is no register on the net
i will try the french forum!
thanks so far!
