Besides the engine, the body and paintwork of your scooter is the biggest project you will come across.We hope to give you a reasonably detailed account of how to go about this.
The process you will read about here has been used successful by myself for over thirty years. During this time there have been massive advances in paint and repair technology and we have moved with this keeping us up to date. Lets get started.
Frame and fork jig Lambretta.
crucially these two main components are the first items you MUST check before even thinking about a fancy paint job.
These forks have been damaged during an impact at some time. The left hand fork boot was twisted.: the tube itself was pushed forward by 6mm.
All this after the customer had spent good money having them painted. Our custom built fork jig will show any dimension faults, which we can then rectify.
As important as the forks is your frame. If you want a scooter that will go round corners as it was meant to, have it jigged.
Our custom built frame jig will show us whether the dimensions are correct or not.
Measurement checks are as follows:

1,Fork main tube centre position.
2, Castor angle,
3,Distance between frame top and toolbox top apperature.
4,Distance between fork tube weld and toolbox lower apperature.
5,Fork legshield support to stand cross member.
6,Front legshield support to rear footboard support.
7, Panel apperature near side (left)
8,Panel apperature off side (right)
9, Legshield and stand cross member height and hole position.
10,Rear brake pedal support pin.
11, Nearside rear footboard support position.
12, Offside rear footboard support position.
13,Rear brake pedal support pin.
14, Main fork tube top shape.
15, Main fork tube bottom shape.
16, Main engine mount tube section.
