There were a couple on eBay . Also try Mark at Moto Guzzi Classics in
California . He can supply you with anything from used to restored
better than new ,striping ,lettering ,paint and chrome. And his prices
are actually a give away for the level of quality. (IMHO)

Hi, I'm new to the list. Had Guzzis before and just picked up a '73 Eldo, the Guzzi I've always wanted. So far it is turning out to be a very correct and low mileage bike that apparently sat for awhile. The one big problem is the gas tank. It is a civilian tank, which I prefer, but riddled with holes on the top. I just had it sand blasted today to see why the top was so thin and spongy feeling. There must be a hundred or more small holes. Looks like swiss cheese. I can't imagine being able to save it. Does anyone have a civilian tank for sale with the correct gas cap? I don't care what condition the paint is in. Looking for a good structural tank to be repainted. Ready to buy now so I can get on with the painting.
