Her name is Daniela. Built by Portuguese master craftsman Carlos Alberto and named in honor of his daughter, this faithfully reproduced Vespa motor scooter is hand crafted almost entirely out of laminated hardwood. What’s truely amazing is that it’s an actual fully functioning scooter! Detailed images and build photos are available on his website. [via RetroThing]
