COMPANY PROFILE

Company Name:
Frank Tonitto Motors selling specialised “Car Parts – Car Repair and Service Equipment” at 124 Silverdale Rd, Silverdale, New South Wales.


History of the Company:
Local businessman and entrepreneur, Frank Tonitto (refer picture) has transformed his passion for American Classic Cars into a successful international business. His company, Frank Tonitto Motors, located at Silverdale, is listed under "Car Parts – Car Repair and Service Equipment" in the local yellow pages. But the company needs no advertising. American Classic car lovers all over the world, restorers and collectors alike, all know what the company sells: - car parts. Hand tooled, customised precision quality parts that last.

Frank has been in the classic car replacement parts industry for over 50 years. Using an extensive technical library and a workshop full of precision manufacturing equipment, the company manufactures and sells parts for Buick, Pontiac, Oldsmobile, Chevrolet, Cadillac, and other classic cars. This is matched by a strong import capability, which capitalises on the company’s excellent reputation in a niche market.

The company has benefited big time from a global e-presence and online advertising, with sales steadily increasing over the last decade. One surprising online entry point with strong sales has been eBay.


Products &/or Services Offered:
Frank Tonitto Motors sells the unique TEFBA Automotive Water Filter (refer below and picture), Engine Life Extender, wheel nuts, lock nuts, lock studs and custom order wheel nuts and studs. The company also supplies parts for Cadillac, Buick, Pontiac, Oldsmobile, Chevrolet, Lincoln, Thunderbird and Dodge.

One of the company’s most successful products is the TEFBA Automotive Water Filter. Designed by Frank Tonitto, and motivated by years of cleaning old radiators, the filter fits inside the top radiator hose of most older cars. A fine stainless steel mesh screen, designed in a unique "U" configuration, filters particles from the coolant, extending radiator life. The TEFBA is recommended by a number of Australian classic car clubs.

Uniqueness of the Company:
Frank Tonitto states:
"Our company’s strong point is the customised manufacture and precision finish of classic car replacement parts. We are unique, providing the Australian and global market with parts no longer in mass production. Our reputation is built on delivering quality custom parts that last."

The company also imports classic car parts from a well-established and extensive network of quality international suppliers, primarily in the United States.
