Its inventor was Corradino D'Ascanio - an aircraft engineer who started work shortly after the end of the war. His design was simple, economical, easy to drive - and innovative. He formed a bulbous sheet metal body around the technology. The concept was a huge success and is still relevant today. The ravages of time are nevertheless gnawing away at the sheet metal scooters from Pontedera. What all can break on old tin scooters - and how to fix it - is shown in this great step-by-step guide. Every assembly, from the two-stroke engine to the bodywork, electrics and wheels, is disassembled, damaged parts replaced and reassembled: scrap becomes afloat - a revelation for every tin scooter owner.
