Here's some photos of my (as-found) Garlatti.

The bike was a bit too big and I gave it to my friend John who painted the frame bright yellow and hung his "deers head" Shimano 600 group on it. He's now back in Australia with the bike. He bought several bikes while he lived here for the last 2-1/2 years, always telling me how much more bikes and parts cost in Australia.

While I had the bike, I collected a few other photos of Garlattis: http://www.twistcomm.com/BikePix/Garlatti2/source/garlatti.html

Good luck with your grandfather's bike!
