I know a body shop guy that can make that a reality. Great twosome.

But I like the two (four) tone paint and brushed/polished stainless steel contrasts and the convenient splits down the middle option.

It is interesting to note the differences in the frame dimensions and though it does not show in the photo, the lever geometry is a little different as well. The left machine is a 77 and the right an 81.

If you get it at just the right angle you might be able to wedge a Ponte Vecchio between those beauties:

Nah, it's not a rare Cremina 67, it's just an ordinary Cremina 134.

I could weld the cases together for you. Bare up a couple little spots and give it a 3 second shot from the MIG welder. On second thought, half the forum regulars would probably lynch both you and me.
