Congratulations on your excellent site!
Further to your request to send in photographs, attached is a picture of
my
Flandria moped. It is an old timer, built in 1959. I was born in 1941,
and
I rode a moped like this when I was in my teens. As a matter of fact,
that's why I bought my present moped just a couple of years ago. It was
in a
terrible state but as you can see, the people who restored it did a very
good job; the only thing that is missing are the original white wall tyres,
which unfortunately are no longer manufactured.
Here in Belgium Flandria
used to be a leading moped manufacturer who
produced its own engine (picture also attached), but the brand ceased to
exist in the early 80's.
