Looks fake to me but I might be wrong.

I don't know much about them but something looks Fujisish to me. Also the older model, repainted, abaresque and TSX all sounds funny.

older model not sure which year
shimano 600 arabesque
22 inch columbus tsx tubing
professionally restored
new vetta racing seat
new cables and housing
shimano 600 pedals not shown
new hutchinson tires
araya wheels

i have 2 other Marinonis

I wouldn't trust anyone who puts up an ad on craigslist in Montreal and can't be bothered to write it in French,

I don't see anything that looks Marinoni about the frame. TSX with stamped dropouts, no bottle or shifter bosses and an old flat crown! I don't think so. Based on the head lugs and seat post collar it looks like an old re-painted Torpado.
