1963 White Vespa GL
Sometime during the past month, this bike was stolen from the shop where one of our club members works in Santa Clara. This is a very hard-to-find Vespa GL, a model which was originally only sold in Europe. It is white with a distinctive trapezoidal headlight (the same kind used on SS 180 and early Sprint models), a black saddle seat and a buddy seat, a chrome rear rack, and it has a Sprint Veloce motor. It also has an unusual aftermarket horn, cast aluminum alloy rims, and a brand new pair of extra long German stainless steel mirrors.
