Ancillotti 175 Racer

1964 Ancillotti 175 Racer

Based on a 1964 Lambretta LI/125 Series III

This is an originally tuned by the ‘Ancillotti’ Bros. in the late 60’s, in Florence.

The was restored a while back and since the original owner knows one of the ‘Ancillotti’ Bros. personally, the ‘Ancillotti’ painted logos & racing ovals on the panels were applied using original templates after the restoration was finished, exactly as the scooter was prior to being restored.

The engine has a tuned 175cc top end with extra ports, a 29mm Dell’Orto carb and a VERY large 50 mm Ancillotti large bore exhaust.
