Jack Gabus's M56-S4216 GC estimated to be made in Carlsbad in 1994 is a mystery to me. Carlsbad in 1994? Maybe the "S" denotes "serial number. Less the "S" it would have been made by me in 1984. By 1994 I was making frames for Bill Holland, and I don't even think any GCs were made in the U.S. during that year. Maybe it's a '94 Mondonico or Billato made frame. I wonder if Jack has pics of it. Maybe I slipped an "S" on it to get a rise out of the guy signing my paychecks.

Dear Joe:

Yes that is a typo that got started somewhere the Ser # is 4216 and has been restored the paint was quite thrashed. If you care to see it go to Morgan Fletchers site. http://www.wooljersey.com/gallery and then go to Gabus pics. Thanks for the notification on CR. If you have any other info please notify me and I will put it on the site.

Also thanks Mike Schmidt for the alert about Joe's info...err I was eating turkey. Now I need to work it off, anybody heard from Gorski about an annual Masi ride.
