Morning all. A few years ago my dad bought 2 Vespas from an auction website. I changed some cables and got them running but that was 4 years. I'm about to start on them again. Any tips, help and info would be hugely appreciated.
Thanks for reading. Wish me luck.

Does anyone have advice on fitting the cylinder head bolts? Sounds simple but, there isn't a stop for the 4 bolts. So, when I tighten the nuts down, the spin the bolts out. I've tried to get them where they should be, put loctite on the threads and two of them still spin.
Can anyone help with this please?
