Nice!
Interesting machine, kinda like a cross between a Moka and a lever, and dad seems like a real character as well. Looks to be in amazing condition.
Can it go stove top as well as electric?

Think I just saw one on Francesco's website for which he does not have a name...interesting piece of machinery!

Where did you see that on Francesco's site? I looked and could not find it.
Added: I answered my own question. It's here listed on the bottom under "No Name," where it's stripped of all identifying data. I will let Francesco know.

He thanked me for letting him know and said he's changing the listing on his site. I pointed him to this thread, so I expect he knows you alerted him. In any case, thanks to Lucio's fortunate discovery, another mystery is solved.

I doubt it. This 1979 machine is so rare Francesco Ceccarelli had it listed as an unknown on his reference website.
