Here is an original 1950's  mettoy Friction operated lambretta scooter in as found condition , the main body is complete  with no damage ,  the Friction motor  still works with a clicking noise ,  the screen  has broke  and been repaired  at some point as can be seen in the photos , the handlebars  , seats and rider are all missing , I think this is because  they were made out of the same plastic as the early toy solders and it goes brittle with age and breaks up easily , such a shame , hopefully  repro will be available  at some time , it's a lovely charming model , please study the photos and email questions, signed for postage only. Please note , I found the remains of the original rider , he's very poor but might be of use to someone  .
