Part of me wonders if Alberto wouldn't really like to keep the names/locations of the contract builders unknown, just to keep a bit of "mystique" about the Masi name. And is Alberto really that well versed about the details of the Vigorelli shop prior to the formation of Masi USA? Was the relationship between Faliero and Alberto a good one?
