Unique
Built by Federico Costanzo
This unusual machine built in the spirit of a Milan Taranto racer was built in Italy by Federico Costanzo who at age 92 has called this one his last one, hence its name ‘Ultima’. He has built dozens of Lambrettas and Vespas in Italy and is famous for his restorations and incarnations. La. Ve. Co. Stands for Lambretta Vespa Costanzo. Certainly something different for the upcoming rallies. No documents are present.
