It seems I have a bit of a real treasure on my hands. (I should probably lock my garage at night, haha.) At the risk of sounding self-serving, I will post progress pictures as I go, I'm not in a rush, taking some little free time I have in the evenings to polish, CLA.
Just to clarify, the Cinelli shop was never in the town of Monza. Only located on viale Monza (translation, Monza avenue) in Milan.

I really believe it was some sort of special deal with someone (shop, club, team, etc) rather than a reference to Cinelli's location. If it were meaningful to Cinelli himself, I would expect to have heard more than 3-4 examples. He was very good at marketing himself.
