History, Price and included items:

Vespa's entry into the car market. The 400 was actually produced by ACMA of France under license. This is a early European model with small headlights and side marker lights above the doors. The interior is big enough for 2 adults and 2 small children. The rear of the car holds the engine and fuel tank. There is no trunk just a drawer for the battery.
The Vespa 400 sold well in the US for a small car with about 6000 units sold in the few years of production. US cars have turn indicators below the headlights and large bumper overriders.

This Vespa 400 is receiving a full restoration that will take a couple years. This includes a engine rebuild and sheet metal replacement.

Not for sale during restoration.
