    Ah the business venture that put them under ...
    I wonder if anyone has any of those and what their value is today?

    Actually while we all know about the Argentina machine tool cancelled order disaster, the Orsis sold that company to a Swiss conglomerate Oerlikon IIRC.

    In the 1960s, the Decatur, IL Firestone Tire plant had a Maserati Milling Machine. The plant is long closed and I am sure the Mill is also long gone.

    That's OK I'm very familiar with how big and heavy those sorts of tools can be. Some things just don't make great coffee tables ... ;) :p

    I saw one in the 90s at a shop just outside Boston. Tolek had one and he was a former Maserati factory mechanic who moved outside Boston (Watertown) and opened a shop working on pretty much anything and everything but very few Italian cars were ever there! If anyone remembers Giovanni’s shop in Alston, Mass, Tolek’s shop wasn’t far. Giovanni seemed to work on most all of the Italian stuff in the area in those days, must have been the name!

    I bought a Maserati milling machine in about 1997 for $1,800. It was well used, and worked well. Sold it 6 years later for $2,000. I painted it and replaced some bushings etc. A decent tool, very heavy and takes up lots of shop space, not easy to sell today.

    Sorry to inform you, but that is just a regular old triangle. SAIMCA was a company from Naples mainly known for milling machines, but they also made warning triangles and even dishwashers. No relation to Maserati whatsoever. There is another one on eBay.it that, according to the seller, came from a VW Beetle.

    Thanks for the info on the triangle.

    Any thoughts on the leather samples? My limited research shows the colour codes are maserati but anyone able to
    confirm?

    Just threw my Rolex in the trash bin, and now I am going to wear this instead.
    Back lit clock by Jean Lassale S.A. of Geneve. From a 1995 Quattroporte. Once you have a car with that golden clock, a car is not a car anymore without it. :) That's why I had to buy a few Biturbos in addition to my 550 Maranello (which does have an analogue clock in the center dashboard!). But is not like grandmothers golden clock on the wall so... Not really a clock. Not really a car. Maserati however understood this aspect. Always missed the leather and the wood and that clock after running over 100.000 kms. in the Biturbos.

    I’m quite partial to the Smith’s clock in my Mexico. That’s a proper instrument from a legendary UK watchmaking company. So much better that the awful ‘collaborations’ - in other words marketing- that you see with watch and car companies these days!
