Restored in the early 1980's, multiple award winner through the 80's, ran the 2006 Mille Miglia Storica then re-restored in 2010. Restored like new with excellent paint, chrome and interior and a clean, orderly engine compartment. Believed to be one of only nine with triple Weber carburetors of which only one other is known to survive. Now fitted with correct style Maserati steel wheels.
Market commentary
Sold by Bonhams at Quail Lodge in 2014 for $891,000 and today showing only about 500 km more on the odometer than it did then, to say this is a bargain at half a million dollars stretches the definition of the word but is applicable in this case not only for this Maserati's condition but also for its rarity, Pinin Farina coachwork and its eligibility and suitability for a wide variety of desirable events.
