datsunZ ◊ 2006-09-27 19:23	1969-1978 Ape 550MP/600 MP(200cc.),maybe even in MP-V version(MP=motore posteriore=back engine;V=volante=steering wheel-drive),if could be visible better into photos 1,3 and 4;however,seen shape of model name plate(placed on right side--left for who watch by outside--of front shield,under the windscreen,similar at contemporary Piaggio Apecar,with "APE"written in block letters in white on a black nameplate),believe must be a 1974-1977 model PS photo 2 shown a fake(and badly-imitated)Italian motorcycle plate at back('because in Italy three-wheeled trucks are registered in the same category of motorcycles,right colours of 70s period were blue characters on white background,not white on black)
datsunZ ◊ 2006-09-27 19:31	And the yellow one was an Ape also,but 70's 350 or 400(isn't visible engine betw;een back wheels,so engine is into cab,under driver's seat;for that feature,I exclude could be an Ape MP series like that orange-painted atop illustrated
datsunZ ◊ 2006-09-28 00:48	another incongruence of yellow one;lacks of rear plate(and is a over 50cc.vehicle)for scenes(for be credible must shown plate back,why was a 150cc.vehicle,that in Italy were registered with plate);what a blooper!!!
