Perfect for loads of jobs - i.e. down the tip, deliveries or even taking my scooter with me if a back flap was added. Never seen it about. I wonder if it is local.

I guess they're the Italian equivalent of the Russian Neval/Dnieper/Cossacks -an ancient design that went on forever.

I guess they're the Italian equivalent of the Russian Neval/Dnieper/Cossacks -an ancient design that went on forever. That is what it reminded me of as soon as I saw it. Surprised BG that they are built as standard. Thanks for the links. Title: Re: Seen at Sammy's Post by: BikerGran on August 23, 2017, 09:35:11 PM Only till 1980. I hate to remind folks, but 1980 was 37 years ago!
