Modena 1957 - Maserati A6GCS


...a passion that comes from afar

Already in the mid-1950s, Giuseppe Candini, strong in his passion for the world of motors and mechanics, joined the racing and customer service department at a very young age within the Maserati plant in Via Ciro Menotti in Modena.

Thanks to the experience gained in those years spent at Maserati, Giuseppe Candini decided to open his own business for the repair of generic cars, while continuing to maintain a strong bond with the house of the trident.

It was in fact in the mid-1980s that, at the request of Alejandro De Tomaso, he moved to Modena, to its current location, to found and open the new authorised Maserati workshop together with his son Marcello.

From that moment on, all efforts and knowledge were at the service of the brand, consolidating an even deeper bond with the famous Modena-based car manufacturer.

This new path leads the company to develop a unique technical knowledge on the Trident models, both classic and modern, making it one of the most qualified workshops for the maintenance and restoration of these prestigious cars, earning the trust of enthusiasts and collectors from all over the world.

Even today, after so many years, Candini Classiche continues to offer restoration and maintenance services with the same values ​​that have always distinguished it, guaranteeing each Maserati the maximum performance and authenticity.
