Looking for Martini owners and Tico Martini

Hello All,

Not having much success, but that's all part of the "detective work" required in re-creating a car's history....


...So her we go....

I am looking for Tico Martini. I have sent numerous emails to the "Martini" factory (and yes, I know it is not owned/run by Tico anymore) with no response. Not being French and living on the other side of the "pond' might have something to do with it, but I will just continue to assume they are very "busy". The only email I received did not even acknowledge the existence of my car...

...So...

Does anyone out there own a Martini? I am specifically looking for MK42 through MK49's, but I would love to hear from any of you. I hope that I can glean some bit of information or, the secret "Martini password" and find some of the bits and pieces I need to complete my restoration.

Please contact me. Worst case scenario, we can form a Martini anonymous group and support each other through the difficult "restoration" times...


Cheers,

Chris Robson

I thought I'd bring this to the top again. No-one out there know about Martinis? I know nothing about these cars, but would love to learn!

Not much help to Chris, but it covers the history of F3 Martinis

Hello Chris,
I own a Martini MK45 but in Formula 2 specs, with BMW M12 and Hewland FT200 gearbox. Maybe I can help you with some answers you have. I now a man in Swiss who knows Tico Martini personally.
