Vespa 150 (VBB2)

The 1963 model year officially introduces the VBB2T as the successor to the Vespa 150, but not much actually changes. Besides minor modifications to the SI 20/17 carburetor and a new contour of the frame around the license plate area, it's mainly the color that marks the difference. The Vespa 150 is no longer finished in a beautiful metallic paint, but now comes in a dove blue solid paint (MaxMeyer Code 1.298.7213).
