[Jamfan]

Hi Everyone, I've been after a forgonette for some time and have now got one!! (pics to follow)

Any help or pointers greatly appreciated.

Welcome Jamfan.

I am a Lawil owner but I do not have a manual.  Also in Suffolk although my car is in Lincoln right now.

Hope we can help

Hello and Welcome

I have a 1968 lawil Willam Forgonette as well and a two seater saloon similar to Barrys  as well
I don't have a workshop manual but if I can be of any help cross referencing things to mine I would be glad to do so

We'll the systems working well

Is it this one you have just bought??



I was offered first refusal before it weant on E-bay but he wouldn't drop the price a penny from £1500, then txt me to say he accepted a fair bit less to end it early 

Very odd way to do business


But hope you enjoy it, are you going to make it road legal, or just for fun in private grounds??

[Jamfan]

Thanks very much guys for the help and support.
I need to work out what these relays/rectifier are??? all shot. I bought this yesterday, I recon 2 weeks until done> Please watch this space!!

[Jamfan]

Hi Shaun, yep that's it. buying from ebay is never easy!! p.s look on me me booth roof. They might interest you

[Barry]

Looks like you should be getting  rid of that old Lambretta taking up space.  I have a good home for it
When were your fire extinguishers last checked Jamfan? 

[richard]

You know I have never been good with rectifiers but I do detect undercurrents 

[skootashaun]

It was on the Saturday before Ebay he blankly refused to budge on £1500 
Who are you gonna use for a dating letter??
LCGB won't do them and the new system is a nitemare 
Have you sourced the brakes yet 

And WHY is your workshop like a scooter graveyard 
I see 2 lammies and 1 Vespa, looks '70's Super/sprint stylie but the pics not too clear.

Im happy it will be done up in a fetching shade of red with a black cat nailed to the roof 

Oh and one last question, does he actually look like Quentin Tarantino ??

[Jamfan]

Ha Shaun, you must have bought the last Lawil off him!! (Tarantino). They're both rally 180s. Li 63 special, 1969 Eibar special (on the floor).
You'll love the van when done ..... watch this space. (what are the Lawil shocks from?) I'm stripping the chassis tomorrow morning and getting the thing powder coated. Got the steel for the front panel and I am going to stick it through the rollers. The front bumper is too rusty to re-crome, so I'll have to paint it the same body colour. 

[skootashaun]

Yes mate, I bought this one:



I didn't have to change the shocks as mine were good,
I would look at the old Fiat 500 first as a lot is interchangeable.

Whats the plan with the scooters?
I have one or two myself.

Will the Willam be ready the IOW then 

Did mr Tarantino tell you he has a Lambro coming in soon?
I had one on the road in daily use for 7 years, very much fun to ride 

[Jamfan]

The rears are not the same as fiat 500? what are they from? Does anyone know what this is?(I think its a rectifier?) The electrics are rusty as I think the van was stored with the bonnet open. If anyone has an electric scematic please let me know,Is the starter also the Dynamo?
thankyou

[skootashaun]

I am sure (from memory0 the starter is just a starter, the box in the pic looks like a regulator.
On a Vespa 5 pin reg the B+ is the battery charging pin.
If it is like my old one, it will be 12v electronic Ducati with a red CDI under the front cover.

My Lawil looks like this.
