With the project '74 Vespa scooter back on two wheels, host Kevin Tetz and Vespa restoration expert Greg West have some serious work ahead in this final episode to get the scooter ready for the road. They install new headlights, hook up the wiring harnesses and reinstall the upgraded headset. Because the gears were slipping on the scooter when it was taken for a test ride, a new gear selector box is added and all the scooter cables are hooked up. Next, a 12-volt electronic ignition kit is installed, which will enhance the lights and make for an easier starting and a smoother running engine. To wrap up the Vespa project some stylish accessories are added to the scooter, which really enhance the look.
