Equipment
Borrani wire wheels, Cinturato tires, ZF 5-speed, Lucas fuel injection, red leather boot cover and fitted luggage, woodrim steering wheel, power windows, Smiths dash clock, Blaupunkt stereo.
Condition
Maserati Classiche certified. One of 37 Mistral Spiders with the 4.0 engine. Represented as matching numbers. Very good paint and chrome. The panel gaps are erratic and the taillights are a bit cloudy. The wheels could stand work, as they are dull with water spots and there is mild surface rust at the bottom of the spokes. Light road wear underneath. An older restoration at has seen its best days already, but it's a solid, attractive car.
Market commentary
The last one of these that sold was a rusty, grimy basket case that went for nearly $480,000 at Gooding Amelia Island earlier this year, so to decline the reported high bid here for this perfectly good and usable restored example makes a degree of sense.
