I thought the seattube cluster looked familiar...it looks alot like the Galmozzi 1950s ( http://www.classicrendezvous.com/Italy/Galmozzi/Gal_50_bike.htm Anyone know of the seattube log has a cutout in the shape of a saddle?

Sorry to disappoint you, but the seatlug on the Galmozzi is bog standard as found on numerous 50's and 60's bikes. The headlugs are also standard except for the addition of the groove and hole. I do believe they are the same ones that Walt S. had on his old Vicini with cambio corsa. In the early 1950's Bozzi catalog reprint that chuck sells, you can see a few versions of the same lug design.
