The seller says this Masi GC dates from 1974 but it obviously isn't. I think the key to its date is the treatment of the ends of the seat and chain stays shown in the second from last photo: http://people.freenet.de/frits/gesamt_masi_03_07.jpg

Looks like the way Alberto did them on his Masi Prestige; not the way Faliero did them on his Masi GC? Any Masi experts care to comment?
