Garelli Monza GT Vintage Moped

Garelli Monza GT is a model of vintage mopeds produced from 1983 to 1986.  It was created at the height of Garelli’s racing career.  Due to the decline of moped popularity of the late 80’s, the Monza GT production was discontinued.  Garelli did not make many of the Monza GT mopeds so engine and body parts for these mopeds are rare.

This Complete and original 1983 Garelli Monza GT belongs to Juan of Michigan.  The Monza engine was not used on any other Garelli models of its productions years.
