Gents, I have a 2 group La Cimbali Granluce that I may be persuaded to part with for not much more than my own cost to buy and import from Italy a couple of years ago. Its unrestored and I havent touched it yet.....as the saying goes, it is "as is where is" and as found. The external condition is good enough to clean and leave, the "beauty" of it being that it is in good original condition. I personally wouldnt send it off to the chromers and get all new stuff made up for it etc because it isnt bad enough, and I dont like machines brought up to better than they looked originally (as it is possible to do these days). That however is the prerogative of the owner 🙂 I have no idea of internal / mechanical / electrical conditinion but can say that currently it isnt a goer - Or - I certainly wouldnt put an electrical plug on it and try and switch on. All I know is...it isnt a goer at the moment and I have no idea what might be required as I havent taken a look. In terms of the price......the condition has no bearing. I paid what I poaid, and it cost what it cost to import from Italy. Traders in Italy know how people are snapping stuff like this up, and dont muck around with the price, which is why when you buy one from someone that has already done up a machine, you pay the ransom. As already stated I will only be looking to recoup my costs and a very small margin if I sell. Reason for selling (if I do) wouldnt be anything more than we havent had the time to look at it and could languish on display here for years, and it may be better in the hands of someone that wants to do it justice right now and get it going and well loved. Anyone that would like to take it further can contact me offline. Rgdz, Attilio very first Crema Site Sponsor
