I have owned several old Torpados and a few were complete chrome. A fellow in eastern Canada commissioned me to build one up for him, in accordance with his specifications. The bike turned out great and he has contacted me a few times to comment on how much he likes it.



At the moment, I have one of these old bikes in The Old Shed, as well as an all chrome Italian Chiorda. There might even be an all chrome Maino out there but the chrome has been cosmetically challenged.
