After introductions, Frank explains the story of how he first connected with Maserati (2:03), before the two men discuss what makes the Maserati designs so special (7:08), and Maserati's emphasis on race car design (10:46). Then Robert asks Frank to talk about his experiences in restoring and driving Maseratis (14:21).
After a short break, Frank details the origins of the Maserati Information Exchange (18:06) and how MIE changed the history of the marque (21:07) before a gradual transition into becoming a resotration company before the recession in the 90s (24:42). Then Robert pivots to discuss the Maserati's rise on the collectible market (31:05), the uniqueness of prototypes in the car industry--especially the ones designed by Franco Saglione (33:08)--and Frank muses on the future of the marque and the car design industry as a whole (35:09).
