Extremely original early example

Correct numbers.
The Lambretta LC was introduced just 2 years after Innocenti began full-scale manufacture and represented a completely revised design after the models A and B. The frame comprised of a single large section tube onto which all of the mechanical components were attached. LCs are quite rare these days, the total production was only 42, 500 units.
This example dates from the first year of production. Around four years ago, the scooter underwent a full mechanical overhaul by Disco Dez scooters, with a completely overhauled engine with all cables, brakes and everything mechanical treated to a sympathetic conservation. The originality has been retained all over. The patina and colour are attractive and there is still the original dealer transfer on the horn cast. There are no visible touch-ups anywhere that we could see and the scooter is very pure. The side panels fit well. The saddles still wear original leather two-tone tops and are usable as they are. There is a GEV rubber floor mat and original Ulma side panel air scoop embellishers.
