Host Kevin Tetz demonstrates techniques for paint and body work and also installs a new seat onto our project motor scooter -- a '74 Vespa Sprint Veloce. Kevin starts with detailed chip repair around the speedometer, and he shows basic hammer and dolly metal-forming techniques to repair a sample dented piece and how to prepare body panels for the primer stage. Next, our host demonstrates the powder coating process on one of the scooter rims and also restores the original worn seat. Lastly, Kevin shows how to create a two-tone
pinstripe paint treatment on the Vespa.
