Photos would help, from different angles, and what is missing.

Welcome to the forum.
Put someone pictures up, or a make and model, and I'm sure someone will be able to help

You are in the right place for good advice. The guys here really know scoots.  |

 Brent (Admin.) had a Vinice. As I recall he had serial problems with it and wanted to do evil things to it.  Hopefully, you'll have better luck.

looks clean and it got painted flat black with what looks like hi temp exhaust paint, cool. I'll bet whoever sold it to you has all 4 'Mad max' DVD's   |

I loved that scoot when it was running. The SunL was the 4T that had all sorts of gremlins that I chopped into small pieced and scrapped. I don't know much about the TGB Venice, but I recall others saying that while it looks like parts from other scoots should fit, something is different and they may not. |

That's my 66 y.o. thinking cap breaking down.  Should have checked it out first.  Dumb.  Good luck with your latest aquisition, man. |

Twist N Go Venice. I have one i saved from a scrapyard, did a full teardown and rebuild. If yours is anything close to mine, you have a good pain in the butt to work with.
Pretty jealous all your plastics appear to be in good(ish) shape. They are becoming increasingly scarce to find, but the scooter has a lot of potential for a no plastics naked build if you choose. Just don't lose those plastics.
As far as the engine goes, you have a minarelli clone 1E40QMB engine, and the odds are really good that its a 12mm piston wrist pin with the large 16mm 15 spline variator shaft. It makes it easy to search for parts either as a Jog 90 on partsforscooters.com or as a Vento Triton on maxiscoot.com or scootertuning.ca. It is also a shortcase style cvt with 11.07:1 gear ratio.
If its anything like mine...
There are always possible variations to the rule, so don't take my word for it. You still should check your own engine parts first. If you have any questions, you know where to find us!
