NOTICE: The owner of this website and GTMotoCycles.com completely lost his home on the morning of January 8th in the L.A. Wildfire Storm. Most of his neighborhood is gone, and a few friends were killed along with their pets. The GTM SHOP and STORE are functioning normally, but we DEMAND EXTREME PATIENCE on orders as we are a SMALL business and Todd usually has his hands on nearly every order before it goes out. You can find more info on a post named L.A. Wildfires in the USA section. Our heart and best go out to everyone effected in this horrific disaster.

I've covered a LOT of miles on two wheels but never owned something with an engine so I'm nearly as new as they come to this endeavor- in spite of being 54. Heheh
Happened upon three basket case Tonti frames (I've done a little research anyway) and I'm excited to get a few machines built up.
Looking forward to leaning on the experience of others here and I'm willing to bet I have a few parts somebody in the group will want when I'm done!
Appreciate being able to join the group so thanks to all those who make this happen.

Aloha Bobby. Congrats and welcome to the GT Forum & Guzzi Famiglia. Mind me asking where you got them from? I believe we once had a doctor (Tom?) who was a big Guzzi guy, but I can't recall which Island he was on. Hope you'll add any info you have on the bikes to the Registry below. Hope to see you here often. For Sale go in the Classifieds here, a donation is required. The site here is from me (Todd), mahalo.
All, like in the other sections and just for fun. A Registry of Tontis listed below. Post all of your info in this thread, as formatted below, and I'll update the list as we go.

Thanks for the welcome Todd and don't mind at all!
I got these from the gentleman who used to run the D.O.T. here on the island of Oahu and he said he bought them about 20 years ago from a friend who I thought he said was a chef at a fancy restaurant here. I believe his name was Phil?
Neither of them seem to have gotten around to restoring and assembling these things obviously, just amassing parts to do so.
I'm looking forward to the journey of sorting the stuff out!
Aloha,
Bobby
