Building on the success of its 3500 GT and Sebring models, Maserati commissioned Pietro Frua to create a new design that would be placed on an updated Tipo 109 chassis. Dubbed the Mistral, this new two-seat coupé was named after the strong winds blowing from the Mediterranean coast in the south of France. Introduced in 1963, the model’s success was instant and thanks to a steady flow of orders, the Mistral remained in production until 1970. Over the course of production, both the Mistral Coupé and Spider were built with different engine options. Only 383 Coupés were built with the 3.7-litre engine, and the Mistral presented here is one such example. Built on the first half of 1964, this Mistral 3.7 Coupe was registered in Italy on 23 August 1964. While most of its early life is unknown, by the 1990s the car had entered an Italian collection. Acquired by the previous owner in April 2010, this Mistral remained in their care for a decade, after which the consigning owner purchased the car as a restoration project. The restoration work was carried out by Dragon Classiche in Dubai, who performed a no-expenses-spared restoration. The red paint it had last been finished in was stripped off, and with the body prepared, the factory-correct colour of Argento Auteuil Metalizzato now covered the body penned by Pietro Frua. The entire drivetrain and suspension systems were fully rebuilt and the interior trimmed in the correct provide colour leather. This nut and bolt restoration was completed in 2024, invoices on file total more than $65,000 in just parts alone, while the complete workshop bill came to $60,000. Arguably one of the finer examples of the Maserati Mistral available on the open market, this Italian delivery example retains its matching-numbers engine and awaits its next chapter with a new owner.
