Vjatka 150 1961 restoration

    Hallo!
    Firstly, sorry i can't speak German, but i would like to introduce my project. I live in Estonia and Vespas are really rare in my country. So we have more common Vespa copys - Vjatka. The last decade has become these scooters more and more rare.
    I will not make a long story, one picture is worth more than thousand words.
    That (s)he looked when i got it (07.09.2014).

    Next day i took it into parts.

    All stuff is waiting to go to sandblasting and rechromeing.

    Cleaned aluminium details.

    Sandblasted details paint job.

    Previously i built engine stand, where i can start engine. All bearings and oil seals are changed. Engine started for second shot. Here is video.

    Paint job is done. 8)


    All new rubber details are from England. These belongs to Vespa, but also fits for Vjatka too.

    Began assembling.



    Brand new saddle.

    Rechromed details. Very smood and beautiful.

    And it is almost done. Only foot bands are missing (20.11.2014). Now it has an Estonian registration plate and local documents. Street legal machine. :)



    This was my third Vjatka. Last year i restored 1964 and 1973 year Vjatkas.

    Danke euch allen! I did not expect so much feedback.
    Yes, this is Christmas edition Vjatka. ;)
    Paintwork with sandblasting was about 1000€. This restored scooter is for sale and will cost 3500€. If anyone wants it's own collections, i can help to transport it in the middle of Europe. This is not a problem.
    If anybody needs some Vjatka part or complete scooter, i have something in my spare part boxes and i know a couple of contacts yet where to get something.
    1961 and 1964 scooters are Vjatka VPMZ (make) and VP-150 (model name). Vjatka VPMZ (make) and VP-150M (model name) is the last picture. It has same (148cc) engine, 3 gears but newer body.
    By the way, i live in south-Estonia, in the town called Viljandi. Estonia is so small that you can easy to come visit me and my scooters. 8)

    Nice scooters! :)

    The W150M looks like a hybrid of Simson-scooters, MZ-bikes and Lambretta-scooters. Espacially the front with the headlight and the fender got the look of these scooters/bikes... very funny. :D

    it was a nice time there, in this time i don´t know some thing about vjatka. ^^

    do you have some other pictures from the blue one restauration.

    Hey, that is cool. 8) Yes i know this wood industy. I have been in Germany many times, last year i visited my favourite car museum in Munich - BMW Welt. Every year i am going to skiing to Austria, this time Kitzbühel is waiting for me in January. I would like to come to live and work in Germany for one day.
    Btw, blue Vjatka restoration topic is here.

    Has been a long time of silence. Scooter is 100% done and a couple of days ago was a photoshooting. Weather was terrible cold (below 0 degrees) on that time, but last week was 15c and spring. Mystery.

    And me and my beauty. 8)

    A couple of months ago i got a Vjatka three-wheeler. Like this one, but mine is on a pieces. I know one more contact where i can get second complete scooter to build one of the two. These are very rear.

    Remind you, if anybody need some Vjatka parts, whole scooter, these tricycles or my restored Vjatka, please contact me, everything is for sale.
