Chassis Number: AMthe details below
Recorded Mileage: 15, 208 kilometres
Subject to older restoration by Danish specialist Skallebolle
A 1971 example, we understand this later 4. 7 litre Indy was supplied new in Milan before traveling first to the MIddle East and then back to Europe a few years later. The Indy was subject to a restoration in the 1990s in Denmark by Italian car specialist Skallebolle. We understand the work took some 800 hours and included a bare metal repaint in Rosso Fuoco, complemented by a tan leather interior, in addition to a comprehensive mechanical rebuild. In 2022 the Indy was treated to a further inspection and engine tune by an Italian sports car specialist. Sadly the history file documenting restoration and maintenance has been lost during an ownership change, however having inspected the car we can report that cosmetically the car presents very nicely, with attractive paintwork, chromework and interior, and a clean engine bay with evidence of fairly recent maintenance. The Indy started immediately and both idled and drove well on test.
In our opinion, with well-proportioned sharp looks and long legged performance in abundance, this eminently usable GT would make a worthy addition to any collection. Accompanying the car is a Maserati-branded suitcase and UK V5C document.
This classic vehicle will be coming to auction with Dore & Rees Auctions on Saturday 21st September at the Castle Combe Autumn Classic. For further information please contact the Motoring department.
