Henri Willame was head of Lambretta France. He marketed rebadged Italian imports by Lawil and other Italian makes such as Baldi, Zagato, Desca and Casalini.
His first Lambretta-engined microcar was presented at the Paris Salon of 1966. These were built by Scattolini in Italy and sold as Willam Farmer and Willam City.
The Willam Sulky was a Casalini with a 50cc Minarelli engine. It had one wheel at the front and two at the rear, a bench seat and a steering wheel in the middle of the fully enclosed cabin. They also sold the Casalini David, some of which were 4-wheeled microcars.

Willam sulky 111f
I have a 1979 Willam sulky 111f I am after any information regarding this vehicle engine photos.
It's still an ongoing restoration. Bodywork needs a little attention before I get it soda blasted and then a couple of coats of paint. Any help with engine diagrams would be appreciated as some bogus parts have been included. Many thanks.

car restoration
Lawil maybe c2 fourgonette
Hi mate i'm sending you from Greece i have a Lawil c2 fourgonette *(i'm not sure if this is the car's correct name) micro car that my grandfather use to drive but since he passed away (lot of years ago) my mother left it out in the rain and it rusted, not knowing it's value. Some weeks ago we decided to pull it out from his "grave" and believe me is in an awful condition. My father and i want to restore it because it's beautiful. But i have problem finding the car's designs, and spare parts, photos of the original car, etc. It has a twin cylinder 2 stork inline engine and rear wheel drive. It would be great to have some of your help because no one knows anything about it here in Greece. I would be grateful if you could provide me with your help! Yours faithfully
Andreas.

Information - Contacts
Lawil A4?
I am trying to find out as much as possible about my newly purchased
Lawil Berlina?.
Can you point me in the right direction?
Regards
Barry
I will let you know everything that turns up
I have found out that the Lawil is 'Sans Permis' It seems that this
means that it was built for 16 year olds, OAPs and drunk drivers that did
not need a permit to drive or could not afford a real car 'with Permit'
This means that I may have trouble registering it in the UK - Any info
would be useful.
Let me know as soon as you find out anything else about the Lawil.
Regards
Barry

I don't know what the copyright situation is but find attached pdfs
of a road test from 74.
I have jpg's which are of better quality but huge in file size (42mb).
I will try to enhance the jpg's and reduce the file size. I have got
the right gear to do this but not enough time.
Interesting?

Could you please give me any info on my Lambretta Willams Farmer Pick-up.I am having trouble
registering it and need to know if they were imported into France from Italy. Thanks.Yours hopefully E

I took that photo earlier this year when I was considering buying the car. We moved to france in jan
2005 and a friend said he knew of the car and gave me directions to find it. As far as I know its still
there waiting for me to make an offer. I asked a local enthusiast to give me some history and he sent me a copy of the catalog he owned.
Thanks Barry
