Carlos Alberto Wooden Vespa - Stunning Stuff

Post by sheeza » Jan 23, 2009 Views: 4130

Craftsman Carlos Alberto came across a Vespa that was in complete disrepair, so he gutted it and carved a body from wood—which he then coated in a multitude of beautiful steam-molded veneers. Stunning stuff. But am I the only one who takes a look at those wheels and imagines little roulette tables?



We're torn in our appreciation of the classic Vespa—after all, Vespas are scooters and scooters equal wedgies. But when they're handcrafted like fine furniture, we can overlook the inevitable flag on the back.
