  • 1973-ferrari-365-gtb4-daytona-by-scaglietti

    FERRARI’S SPECTACULAR 365 GTB/4 A paragon of 20th Century sports car design, Ferrari’s 365 GTB/4 featured revolutionary styling by Leonardo Fioravanti, unlike anything else yet created in the company’s history, and marked their first use of a 4.3-liter dual-overhead-cam engine in a road car. Actually a stopgap model while a forthcoming rear-engine, flat-twelve model remained in development, it surprised everyone with its sheer success, and developed a special, lasting cachet among the marque’s vintage front-engined V-12 berlinettas. With a staggering output of 352 horsepower, the 365 GTB/4 dethroned the Lamborghini Miura as the world’s fastest production car. Utilizing dry-sump lubrication that enabled a lower placement of the engine, a five-speed transaxle that provided ideal 50/50 weight distribution, and all-wheel independent suspension, the Daytona offered crisp handling characteristics at speed. Wide wheels with superior tire contact and four-wheel disc brakes rounded out a superb all-around package that eventually proved worthy of competition applications. As the final front-engine Ferrari to feature a derivation of Gioacchino Colombo’s classic short-block V-12, the Daytona was the ultimate evolution of 20 years of development, constituting the triumphant conclusion of a generation of vintage Ferraris. Such was its performance that it was nicknamed Daytona, honoring Ferrari’s dominating 1-2-3 podium sweep in the 1967 24 Hours of Daytona, something that became a point of legend—even if the name was not officially sanctioned by Enzo Ferrari. CHASSIS NUMBER 16943 Marque authority Marcel Massini notes that the 365 GTB/4 Daytona offered here, chassis number 16943, was completed on 23 October 1973, and delivered to East Coast distributor Luigi Chinetti Motors of Greenwich, Connecticut. Massini indicates that the car may have been exhibited by Lake Forest, Illinois, dealer Knauz Continental at the 66th Annual Chicago International Auto Show in the spring of 1974. Actual final delivery was not until that September, when yet another famed Ferrari impresario, Algar Enterprises of Paoli, Pennsylvania, sold the car to Ian S. Murray, a vice-president of the agricultural commodities brokerage firm, Cook Industries, in Memphis, Tennessee. By 1976 the car was in the ownership of Frederick Fitzgerald, who advertised it in both the New York Times and AutoWeek as having 3,100 miles and “never driven in rain.” It was sold in 1977 to the partnership of Dick Barbour and O. Edgar Rouhe of California, eventually passing to Mr. Rouhe alone; he retained ownership of the car for nine years. It then passed to Bruno Broseghini and then to longtime Ferrari connoisseur and enthusiast, Charles T. Wegner, returning to Illinois with 3,980 miles. Mr. Wegner sold the car in 1995 to Arthur E. Coia II of Providence, Rhode Island, who the following year had it refinished to the original color by Shelton Ferrari in Fort Lauderdale, Florida—still the most major work that the Ferrari has received in its low-mileage life. Mr. Coia occasionally exhibited the car, including winning its Platinum award at the Cavallino Classic in Palm Beach in 1999. In 2004, chassis number 16943 passed to Marc Fisher of Greenwich, Connecticut, who repeated its Platinum at the Cavallino Classic four years later. After keeping the car for nine years, he sold it to another East Coast enthusiast, beginning a series of short-term ownerships, eventually culminating with its arrival in the present significant collection in the summer of 2014. It has remained in good company there for the last decade. It is in beautiful condition for its age, with satisfying originality of components (including the numbers-matching engine and gearbox) throughout, as noted in the accompanying Ferrari Classiche Red Book issued in 2024. Displaying only 5,710 miles at time of cataloguing, believed to be its original mileage since new, this Daytona remains original and unrestored aside from the aforementioned refinish to its correct color. In addition to its Ferrari Classiche Red Book, it is accompanied by its original warranty card. Surely one of the lowest-mileage Daytonas available, this car has led the sedate life that all deserved but few did, and is worthy of the finest collection. 1973 Ferrari 365 GTB/4 Daytona by Scaglietti RM Sotheby's If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

  • 1973 Alfa Romeo GT 1300 Junior

    The Alfa Romeo 1300 GT Junior is part of the famous Alfa Romeo Giulia Sprint GT series, which was produced from 1963 to 1977. The 1300 GT Junior was produced from 1965 to 1977 and around 91,195 units were built. This vehicle series is known for its sporty and elegant design, created by Bertone under the direction of Giorgetto Giugiaro. The independent front suspension with wishbones and coil springs and a rigid axle with trailing arms and coil springs at the rear ensured agile and sporty handling. All vehicles were fitted with disc brakes at the front and rear. Under the direction of the current owner, this GT Junior was completely restored in Italy to a very high standard and extensively optimised technically. The engine was upgraded to 2 litre and the suspension was improved. The original engine comes with the car. A wonderful everyday classic with outstanding driving characteristics, in a very attractive colour scheme and in comparatively very good condition!

  • 1960 Maserati 3500 GT by Touring

    Maserati had built a highly successful reputation in the racing world but its success did not come without a price. By the mid-1950s, the cost of maintaining a factory race team was straining the company’s bank account. Wanting to refocus its efforts on road cars that would earn a potential profit, the factory racing programme was temporarily put on hold in 1958. The marque continued to support privateers while attentions turned to balancing the books through a line of luxurious road-going models. Development of Maserati’s first purpose-built road car, the 3500 GT, took place starting in 1956. Introduced at the 1957 Geneva Motor Show, the first few completed cars were delivered at the very end of 1957. Featuring an elegant 2+2 design by Giulio Alfieri, the Superleggara hand-formed aluminium-over-tubular frame coachwork was created by Carrozzeria Touring. Maserati’s 3,500-cc race-bred engine was converted to wet sump and tuned for street use. The 3500 GT was a success, and the handsome grand touring car helped the company turn a profit. It stayed in production until 1964 after a little under 2,000 coupés were made, paving the way for the great GT models for years to come. The example offered here is believed to have been delivered new to the United States as one of the last 3500 GT coupés finished in 1960. The early production car is marked out by its Weber carburettor set-up, with later versions notably becoming the first Italian-made production car to use a fuel injection system. Through Maserati ownership registries, it is believed that chassis AM101*998 was once owned by prominent US-based collectors, Herb Young and Alan Cordan. The car was later owned by a keeper in Connecticut before joining its next owner some years later. Under their guidance, the Maserati was restored by a Connecticut-based workshop. This included rebuilding the braking system, carburettors, engine, and suspension while reviewing the electrical system. A new fuel tank was also installed. The interior was reupholstered in black leather, the driver’s seat rails were extended to accommodate taller occupants, while many instruments around the dashboard were either restored or renewed. The Maserati was acquired at auction in 2019 and brought to the UK one year later. An invoice on file notes that the car was taken to Neil Twyman for mechanical fine-tuning for its new owner. An excellent alternative to a contemporary Aston Martin or Ferrari, the charming 3500 GT helped return Maserati to prosperity and further cement its name in the post-war sports car world. Benefitting from a recent restoration, this example would make a fine addition to any collection. 1960 Maserati 3500 GT by Touring RM Sotheby's If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

  • 1954 Mercedes-Benz 300 SL Gullwing

    For many automotive enthusiasts, the story of the modern supercar starts with the Mercedes-Benz 300 SL. Debuting in 1954, the model teamed a beautiful aesthetic, capped off by those statement “gullwing” doors dictated by the lightweight tubular frame construction, with a performance punch from the 2,996-cc M198 straight-six engine. Making 215 horsepower to yield a top speed of 163 mph, it was recognised as the fastest production car in the world. Naturally, such a legacy ensures that every 300 SL is significant. However, the car offered here holds a particularly exceptional and fascinating backstory. A very early example, chassis 198.040.4500012 was built on 24 September 1954. Originally specified in the signature shade of Silver Grey Metallic over a blue vinyl and blue plaid fabric interior, according to its factory data card, it was a designated “Standwagen” (show car) and destined for “Automobil-Salon, London”. The records further note that it was fitted with engine number 198.980.4500022. During October 1954, it was driven from the marque’s Stuttgart headquarters straight to the United Kingdom to feature on the Mercedes-Benz stand for the 39th edition of the International Motor Exhibition held at London’s Earls Court; a sister Gullwing served as a demonstrator at the event. This very Gullwing attracted the world’s press, was photographed by many, and filmed by British Pathé as the revolutionary doors drew a crowd. There, this road-going evolution of the W194 endurance racer also caught the attention of celebrated privateer Formula 1 and sportscar team boss Rob Walker, who became the first British customer to purchase a 300 SL, buying this car directly off the stand. However, he would never take delivery. Per the account of Ron W Waghorn, employed with Mercedes-Benz Great Britain and tasked with looking after Walker’s cars, this example was swiftly taken to the roads around Hatfield to be shaken down by a group of engineers. A short while later, their Mercedes-Benz colleagues were met not with the returning Gullwing but by the police, who relayed that in damp and slippery conditions on the A1, chassis 198.040.4500012 had lost control and spun backwards into a tree. The rear bodywork and spare wheel bore the brunt of the impact. Accordingly, the car was returned to Germany to be repaired. Finally, in May 1955, the 300 SL was registered for the road for the first time to serve as a demonstrator for Mercedes-Benz GB and given the registration number “RGO 30”, which it retains to this day. In January 1956, the Gullwing was purchased by Carr & Co’s Noel Carr, a racing driver heir to the Carr’s Biscuits fortune who operated as a spare-time car dealer. Seven months later, Carr sold this Gullwing to its first private owner, Mr Charles Gardner. Having bought the car on 24 August 1956, the Gullwing would later spend around 20 years off the road and stored in a barn at his Sussex apple farm. Mr Gardner then transferred the car to his daughter, who re-registered it in France. Eventually, in October 2000, the Gullwing returned to the UK under the custodianship of Mr Gardner’s son, and it has remained in his family ever since. The consigning family then co-ordinated a five-year body-off restoration that spanned November 2005 to April 2010. At this point, the odometer was reset. Since the rebuild, this wonderful 300 SL has been repeatedly serviced by leading classic Mercedes-Benz specialist Kevin O’Keeffe, while Martin Cushway rebuilt the gearbox in 2015 before HK Engineering overhauled the differential in September 2021. The Gullwing heads to auction following an August 2024 service, having also passed an MoT with no advisories shown. Refinished in its original colour combination and complemented by the rare and highly desirable Rudge centre-lock wheels akin to how it featured at the Earls Court Motor Show, plus workshop manual, and extensive document file, this very early 300 SL Gullwing boasts a remarkable history in addition to retaining its matching-numbers chassis, body, and engine. Due to the pre-production nature of this Gullwing, its build sheet does not contain other numbered component records, however the front kingpins and differential all date from 1954. Furthermore, this Gullwing retains various features distinct to early examples. Thanks to MoT certificates on file dating back to 1977, the car is believed to have a total mileage of approximately 54,00 from new, with the Gullwing recorded at 40,483 before undergoing restoration. Having captured the world’s imagination at Earls Court some 70 years ago, chassis 198.040.4500012 is very likely to be the last “Standwagen” to be offered from single private ownership. A truly tantalising opportunity, this richly historied Gullwing would be an extremely rewarding prospect for its next owner. 1954 Mercedes-Benz 300 SL Gullwing RM Sotheby's If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

  • 1953-aston-martin-db2

    Victor Gauntlett is a key figure in the long history of Aston Martin, helping to steer the company through a difficult period in the early 1980s and staying on as chairman after the Ford takeover in 1987. He was also a keen enthusiast and a discerning collector, and he owned this DB2 on two separate occasions. Chassis number LML/50/396 was built on 11 April 1953 as a right-hand-drive, UK-market car. The Heritage Certificate notes that it was Black with Beige trim, and that it wasdispatched on 23 April to Brooklands of Bond St, London. The registration number that it still wears today – PAR 651 – was issued in Hertfordshire. A black-and-white photograph in its file shows the car competing at Prescott hillclimb during the 1950s, and it was later owned by John Donner – another well-known collector who was noted for the quality of his restorations. Elsewhere in the file is a set of photographs documenting a rebuild during Donner’s ownership, in which the car was stripped all the way down to a bare chassis and its bodywork taken back to bare metal. The DB2 was then acquired by Victor Gauntlett, whose son Richard has fond memories of high-speed runs in this car, including a cross-country drive from Essex to Gloucestershire in tandem with his father, who was at the wheel of his Blower Bentley. Even though Victor subsequently sold the Aston Martin, it must have made quite an impression on him because he bought it back only five months later. In 1995, the DB2 played a central role in the Aston Martin Owners’ Club Diamond Jubilee celebrations, and was one of a select group of cars that were displayed inside the Dorchester Hotel in London during the Grand Jubilee Ball. It was subsequently bought from Gauntlett by a marque enthusiast as part of a small collection, and in 2010 its engine was rebuilt by Rex J Woodgate Automotive Consultants. Now superbly presented in green with red wheels, this Aston Martin DB2 boasts a fascinating ownership history and is a fine example of this charismatic 1950s sports saloon.

  • 1987 Ford Sierra Cosworth RS500

    This striking Sierra Cosworth RS500, No 0125 / 500, is offered fresh to market after almost 20 years of continuous ownership and must surely represent one of the most original and unmolested examples to become available in recent times. The original Ford Sierra RS Cosworth was the first Ford to wear the Cosworth badge and was presented to the public at the Geneva Motor Show in March 1985. It was introduced as a means of homologating the Sierra for 'Group A' Touring Car racing, with a requirement that 5,000 cars were built and sold. Launched for sale in July 1986, and based on the three-door Sierra body-shell, it was designed by Ford's Special Vehicle Engineering (SVE) and was powered by a Cosworth-designed 2.0-litre turbo engine of now-legendary repute. At this time, the Sierra Cosworth was a new kind of performance car - a 'blue-collar hero' able to humble true sports cars! In total 5,545 cars were produced - of which 500 were sent to Aston Martin Tickford for conversion to the Sierra 'RS500 Cosworth'. If the RS Cosworth was a homologation car, the RS500 was an evolution special. Once Ford had built the requisite 5,000 RS Cosworths, 'Group A' rules allowed an upgraded 'evolution' model to be launched. This could carry changes focused on improving its racing potential, provided Ford sold 10% of the original number as road cars, hence the 500. The RS500 was announced in July 1987 and had a mechanically uprated Cosworth engine (more similar to the one to be used in competition), with power boosted to 224bhp, modified bodywork and the cachet of being hand-assembled - the RS500 really is the ultimate 1980s Fast Ford! This particular Ford Sierra Cosworth RS500, No 0125 / 500, is offered fresh to market after almost 20 years of continuous ownership and must surely represent one of the most original and unmolested examples to become available in recent times. Prior to purchase in 2004, our vendor made the decision that an RS500 was on his bucket list, but not just any old RS500, it had to be one of the very best. With that in mind, and the object of his desire sourced, an inspection by Alastair Mayne, Graham Goode Racing's Technical and Development Engineer was enlisted to inspect the vehicle to ensure that this was truly original and unmolested, even checking the often abused ‘ECU’ for signs of tampering ! As you would expect all was good and the purchase rubber-stamped with many years of meticulous and fastidious ownership to follow. ‘E290 VFD’ remains in the same condition to this very day with the exception of the front air dam and rear bumper which required minor refinishing to bring back up to the superb and original finish of the remainder of the vehicle and, with the exception of general service items, this is how the RS presents today. With a comprehensive history folder, Dating Certificate and workshop manuals there is little more to say other than that if you are looking for one of the most original, unmolested and desirable Performance Fords, freshly serviced and MOT’d, we suggest that your search may be at an end. 1987 Ford Sierra Cosworth RS500 Iconic Auctioneers Ltd If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

  • 1958 Ferrari 250 GT Cabriolet Series I by Pinin Farina

    MARANELLO’S FIRST SERIES-PRODUCED CONVERTIBLE The Pinin Farina-bodied cabriolet that Ferrari introduced at the Geneva Salon in March 1957 was not only a triumph of design, with its elegant rear haunches, covered headlamps, and long centrally ventilated bonnet, but it also marked an auspicious milestone in Maranello history as the company’s first series-produced open-top model. While the first two examples were essentially prototypes that visibly varied, sometimes referred to as the Pinin Farina Spiders, the next 38 cars were generally more uniform in design with several different specific variations. However, despite being the first series-built Ferrari convertible, many experts still consider the Series I Cabriolets to be virtual one-offs, as they were constructed in Pinin Farina’s custom shop rather than on the coachbuilder’s factory floor. Featuring a myriad of customised trim details and differing interior amenities, these cars varied significantly enough from example to example to support the idea that each one was a special bespoke grand touring machine. Each model was crafted by hand, leading to a price tag that doubled that of its 250 GT California Spider sister model. In total, only 40 examples of the first series Pinin Farina Cabriolet were built before the model gave way to a mid-1959 redesign that was intended to further differentiate the Cabriolet from the California Spider. With a competition-derived chassis and the ever-formidable Tipo 128C Colombo-designed short-block V-12, the first-series cabriolets were not only beautiful to behold, but they were capable of exhilarating road performance as well, representing the pinnacle of open-top grand touring in the late-1950s. A JEWEL OF WHITE AND TURQUOISE Newly repainted in white, in homage to its fabulous original colour combination of Bianco over Pelle Turchese—and confirmed by factory data from Ferrari Classiche to retain its matching-numbers chassis, engine, gearbox, and rear axle, this exquisite first-series Cabriolet is one of the most remarkable examples to be publicly offered in memory. According to the combined research of marque expert Marcel Massini and French automotive historian Marc Rabineau, including period registrations and invoices dating to the mid-1960s, chassis 0849 GT is the 23rd example built. Completing assembly in May 1958, the Cabriolet was desirably equipped with covered headlamps and finished in Bianco paint over an interior trimmed in Turchese (turquoise) vaumol leather by Connolly, combining for a particularly striking color scheme. The 250 GT was immediately sold to Enzo Paoli Tacchini of Lodi, Italy, a smaller city south east of Milan, and registered “MI 384430”. Mr. Tacchini kept the Ferrari for a little over two years before selling it to Mario Fano of Milan, and in 1964 Parisian resident Claude Guillaux became the car’s third owner. The Cabriolet passed through the hands of at least three more French owners in the late-1970s before being acquired by Keith Sohl of Woking, England, in the early 1980s. By the late-1980s the Series I Cabriolet was in the possession of a German living in Paris, and it was spotted at several European events during the early 1990s, including the 1990 AvD-Oldtimer Grand Prix at the Nürburgring, and the 1992 FF40 (Ferrari Francorchamps) meeting at Jacques Swaters’ Garage Francorchamps in Belgium. In 1995 the Ferrari quickly passed through a short chain of American-based ownership, ending with Dennis Pobiak of Scottsdale, Arizona, who acquired the car in April 1996. By this time the cosmetic livery had been refreshed to a combination of Rosso paint over a Nero interior. During his 11-year ownership, Mr. Pobiak presented 0849 GT at the 2007 Quail Motorsports Gathering as part of the event’s featured reunion of 250 GT Series I Cabriolets. After more than a decade of dedicated care, Mr. Pobiak sold the Ferrari in 2007 to a noted French collector, commencing a 14-year period of fastidious attention. In 2013 the owner was able to locate the matching-numbers engine, number 0849 GT, which had been installed in the 250 Europa GT number 0367 GT, and whose owner agreed to sell the motor. Four years later the cabriolet was submitted to Carrosserie Lecoq in France for a full restoration, including installation of the matching-numbers engine. While the interior was retrimmed in the unique shade of Turchese, the owner opted to paint the exterior in Nero. On the back of the beautiful restoration, the 250 GT was presented at the inaugural Cavallino Concours d’Elegance held in Modena in July 2021. Acquired by the consignor four months later, the Series I Cabriolet has more recently been treated to a refinish in homage to the original color of Bianco, the unique original colour scheme that graced the car when it left the factory. Furthermore, the Cabriolet has been confirmed by data from Ferrari Classiche to be fitted with the matching-numbers chassis, engine, gearbox, and rear axle, cementing an impressive degree of mechanical authenticity. This superlative Cabriolet Series I is a magnificent example of Maranello’s rare 250 GT-based convertible tourer. It would make a crowning acquisition for any collector of vintage Ferraris or important open post-war sports cars. Equally prepared for the road or the concours field, this spellbinding Prancing Horse promises its next caretaker untold satisfaction. 1958 Ferrari 250 GT Cabriolet Series I by Pinin Farina RM Sotheby's If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

  • 1955 Porsche 550 Spyder by Wendler

    Recognised as the first Porsche designed from the ground up to be a race car, the 550 Spyder contested the most revered motorsport events of the 1950s. On the entry lists of the Targa Florio, Mille Miglia, 24 Hours of Le Mans, and Carrera Panamericana, the diminutive mid-engined sportscar achieved astonishing results against larger-capacity rivals from Ferrari and Maserati. The late racing driver Herbert Linge, who held the distinction of being the first mechanic employed by Porsche upon its factory moving to Stuttgart, wonderfully kept a handwritten record of the 90 examples built of the model, so called because of its remarkably low 550-kilogram weight. According to his notes, chassis 0038 was completed on 29 April 1955 equipped with engine P90031 (internal number 41) and gearbox 10029. Finished by the factory in white with burgundy accents, it was one of two cars destined for Portugal. There, it was first owned by Fernando Mascarenhas, who campaigned the 550 Spyder in a variety of European circuit races. The car is believed to have scored class podiums on its first two competitive outings at Barajas and Monsanto in 1955 before participating in the Nürburgring 500 Kilometres that August. This 550 Spyder was then sold to Cypriano Flores in 1958, and further entered into other national races. After his death, chassis 0038 was taken over by his son, Caeser Flores. He sought a restoration in Portugal in the 1980s but struggled to find the right company to sympathetically handle the dry sump, 1,498-cc flat-four Carrera engine and alloy body. He eventually returned the car to Porsche for a complete overhaul, with the mechanical work carried out at Zuffenhausen while original coachbuilder Wendler attended to the exterior. Critically, this example retains its matching-numbers engine, four-speed gearbox, and seamless mild steel chassis. The bulkhead, dashboard, and rear clamshell appear to have remained throughout, likewise for the underfloor that still features the correct drainage holes and caps to direct water away from the compact, open, two-seater cockpit. It should be noted that during the 1992 to 1994 restoration, Wendler seems to have used modern pop-up rivets at the front and on the floor. The colour was also changed to silver, the beige vinyl interior switched to black leather, and other technical alterations made. The car has not been driven since the restoration. Similarly, the dual-overhead camshaft, 110 horsepower, Type 547/1 engine has allegedly not turned over since July 2010 owing to the crankshaft ostensibly retaining its original roller bearing specification. As such, it is recommended that a full service is undertaken before use. Thereafter, by virtue of retaining its matching-numbers engine and gearbox, chassis 0038 would make for a truly outstanding candidate for any significant Porsche collection and at discerning Concours d'Elegance events. 1955 Porsche 550 Spyder by Wendler RM Sotheby's If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

  • 1972 Maserati Indy 4700

    This Maserati Indy 2+2 Tipo AM 107/1 manufactured in March 1972 at the Modena, Italy, factory is one of 364 units that were manufactured with the 4.7-liter engine out of 1,102 units produced between 1969 and 1975. This particular unit comes standard with a ZF 5-speed manual transmission and mounts the 4.7-liter 90-degree V8 290cv engine with double overhead camshaft and Bosch injection system, where according to the catalogue, the car managed to reach the 175 Mph. The vehicle had a complete and fully restoration from bodywork, paint and interiors to mechanics. It is currently registered with the original Barcelona license plate of the time with all the documentation up to date. It can be viewed and tested by appointment at our facilities in Barcelona, just 5 minutes from the international airport. The Maserati Indy, officially unveiled at the 1969 Geneva Motor Show, was a tribute to the two consecutive victories of Maserati 8CTF racing cars in the famous 500-mile race at the Indianapolis Speedway in 1939 and 1940. This new model was designed by Virginio Vairo at Vignale and was conceived to bridge the gap between Ghibli and Mexico. The roofline was higher compared to the Ghibli, offering more headroom for rear passengers. The mechanics were borrowed from the Ghibli and represented traditional Maserati technology: semi-monocoque structure with front subframe, independent double wishbone front suspension and a rigid rear axle with leaf springs. Standard equipment included a two-way adjustable steering column, anti-theft steering lock, leather upholstery, tinted power windows, reclining seats, fog lamps, heated rear windshield, headrests, and a dash-mounted clock in front of the passenger. Power steering, automatic gearbox and radio were options. In 1973, the Indy adopted the hydraulic braking system of Citroën, the then new owner of Maserati. 1972 Maserati Indy 4700 Auto Storica If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.
