History File – Our Michelotti (Vignale) designed Maserati Sebring 4. 0 is a rare sight these days and one of only 19 of the final 4. 0 Litre cars produced following its 3. 5 and 3. 7 Litre predecessors. This particular Second Series 4. 0 example, has been confirmed by Maserati as number #3 of just #19 cars built between 1966 and 1968 before being replaced by the Ghibli model. Maserati have confirmed that Chassis number AM101/ S10* 537 was built on the 21st September 1966 and delivered to Chiasso in Switzerland. It’s also been confirmed that the original Swiss dealer ordered the car specifically with a 4. 0 Litre engine which Maserati validated was prior to completion of the full 4. 0 homologation, which is why the car was allocated an earlier Tipo number AM101/ S10, as opposed to the later AM101/ A10. In Switzerland, the car enjoyed two owners and was clearly restored in the early nineties when it was repainted the stunning solid red we see today. The car was bought in 2000 by a prominent German collector and would remain with him for over 20 years as part of a 300+ collection of cars. It’s clearly been a personal favourite as the car was permanently registered throughout the period and used regularly. It’s also taken part in several European classic rallye’s over the last two decades: Ennstal Classic; Silvretta Classic Rallye Montafon twice; Jochpass Oldtimer Memorial Bad Hindelang, on three occasions. Cathedral Classics sold the car in 2021 to a discerning client who immediately invested further and returned the car to its original exterior colour and continued to improve the car and investing almost €50. 000. Cathedral Classics are delighted to offer this rare car once again to the market place.
