Hi Scott,
Check with Matteo, he has one. You can get the story I heard from him,
straight from the mouth of Alberto. His is a late one that has "Faliero Masi" in big
letters on the down tube and no serial number. It may not be the same as the
ones you are asking about as I don't think it would qualify as a GC. It's one
of a small number of bikes he built for special friends, after he retired.
