Hi oddscoot fans!
If you're interested in the unusual vintage motorscooters of the 1950s, you're in for a treat!
Tom and Anna Giordano are the hosts of this blog, and we're finally trying to get out act together to create a web presence to show off and discuss our extensive collection of oddscoots.
But we are not just owners and collectors. We are enthusiasts who are dedicated to the preservation of the magnificent scooters of the 1950s -- everywhere. We can often help owners of
oddscoots with information, literature, advice, and sometimes parts.
Please bear with us as we try to get the hang of this blog thing! Interesting stuff lies ahead!

Howdy! Do you have a vintage motorscooter (or scooter parts) that you'd like to offer for sale? Why not post it here and get some free publicity?
If this feature becomes popular, we'll set up a better form, but for the time being, just type the basics of your ad in the "COMMENTS" bod below, and -- assuming it meets with our criteria -- we
will post it on this site for you. In fact, we'll probably pass the word around to interested parties as well. Make sure you include the manufacturer, model, year, displacement,
condition, price, and contact information -- as well as any other information you care to provide.
