$3679 euros, seller must be over the moon and yes I realize it's a rare model

Moderator Note: I added the "gas-fired" description to the title so people can find out about this unusual machine. - drgary

Red label would seem a first model, not? http://www.francescoceccarelli.eu/m_faema.htm

Collector's value aside,
What makes these machine so special?

As a owner of a F.F. electric I'd like to see this one in action and comparisons.

That's a beauty btw.

It is a gas fired model and very few were made. It came complete, including the knock box. Looks to be in good original unrestored condition.

I was watching the auction, but it soon headed north as expected.
