Shimano 105 would be fine to get it going and clocking up the miles. Thats more important than having it sit around doing nothing.
The frame is quite desirable though. In fact, I've been on the lookout for a Bianchi MAX frame for at least the past 15 years, but here in Australia they must be as rare as hens teeth. I remember when Columbus MAX frames came onto the market; they were about twice the price of a Columbus SLX frame. Until then, Columbus SLX frames were top of the line racing frames.
Your bike is a true collectors item.
