Here we have another Ebay listing for a fairly rough early 150 Super. The low opening bid of $10, with no reserve, is attractive. If this scooter sells for somewhere under $400, it would probably be worth the effort in resurrecting it.
The very first batch of 150 Supers imported to the US had some interesting features. For the first thing, they did not have the turn signals and funky electrics of the later US models. However, they did have some nice goodies that the European models did not have. They included the oil injector. They also had smaller headlights, which made the handlebars look nicer. The other nice thing about these early ones is that they had the older style script badges as opposed to the block style badges of the later Supers.
This particular scooter is one of the few which came in this olive green color. I've seen a few from this batch, and I really like the color. I've only seen it on these early 150 Supers. Sweet. This scooter also has at least one of the original front fender reflectors, and still has the correct rear tail light and the often missing tail light side reflectors.
It is a toss up whether to buff out the original paint and ride it as-is, or opt for a respray. The motor side cowl looks pretty rough. Hmmm, hopefully this scooter will find a new owner for cheap. It is complete and interesting enough that it deserves to make it back on the road.
