Where did you find it?

[kjjohnson]

Just surfing the web looking for Ape photos. Don't know where in Italy but obviously for sale in a market - see all the wheels on the ground alongside it, obviously for sale in a booth somewhere. Also found this Ape A for restoration at the same time. IT'S A SATURDAY MARKET BUT I DON'T KNOW WHERE Ken

A flooded Ape, and an Ape abandoned at a country house. If you're into black and white photography, (this isn't but it's close), the photo of the flooded Ape is spectacular. - Ken

hello ken I wrote the seller and told me that the batteries are dead but they took a sample to replace them. he said they are cheap, and you think 'to be bought.
only undecided over of properties' I like you are a collector but if I spend the 400th for the passage of property give up
hello

Tizipaa: It's a very rare bird, probably less than 300 built. Check the Telai section of this website for the serial numbers and years produced. I will check and see if there is a Manual available, you might ask the seller what documentation is available. Perhaps even go back to the source where the vehicle came from. With today's interest in things electric it attracted my interest. You should however check out the floor of the cabin and everything else mechanical. Probably not a big lineup of folks looking to buy, that's why it's been on the market for awhile so the price is probably negotiable, as for transfer costs that's a given so bite the bullet. The posted photo is the only one I've ever seen. Keep me posted but go slowly and check out everything you can and photos would help if you go to see it. Photos inside and out and underneath. That will tell you lots and will be a good reference. Ken
