![]() ![]() Marcelo purchased this 1947 GTW in the city of Cordoba, Argentina. Its engine is a horizontal 4-stroke 499cc single cylinder with a rather large exposed flywheel for which it was nicknamed the “Deli Slicer.” The GTW was the higher horsepower model, producing 22bhp compared to the GTV which produced 20.5bhp at 4300rpm. The GTV was the backbone for many model descendants including the GTW, Astore and Falcone, which most would remember as early Army motorcycles and delivery tricars. Moto Guzzi produced the GTV model line and descendants from 1933 through the late 1960s, with the GTW model coming out between 1947-1949. We chose to include this amazing machine as one of the Makoto Endo art series labels not only due to its notable place in history for Moto Guzzi, but for its special place in the MotoDoffo Collection too.
