It's actually gonna be a restoration. I got a '72 & a '73 at a real good price for the pair. I even got the title on the '73! You just don't see these around much and I've always thought they were really cool. I cant wait to cruise one of them around the city! WEENENENENAAANENAAAAANAAAAAA...!!!! (Sound of a 2 stroke!)

Good looking start to a fun project. I've had a couple of them. Yahoo has an Aeramacchi group you can join. Great bunch of people and some of the best knowledge, in one group, you'll ever find. Parts are available. Even Zanottis has some. Look in their parts listings for the P designation. Feel free to shout if you need any help or suggestions.
