    And it is an automatic, which is not adding to its value...
    Old dash, low VIN and 4.9: strange!

    Prettige avond

    Hi Bart,
    I recognized your Ghibli in one of your previous posts. It was the Ghibli I saw a few weeks ago and rode behind it for several km's from Helmond to E'hoven. Ever since I 'm determined to buy a GT Maserati. Thanks for that :)
    The Ghibli will be beyond my budget but the Indy seems a nice alternative for me. That brought me to the Indy thats for sale at Witmer&Odijk.

    By the way; what is a 'low VIN'?

    Goed weekend verder.

    Dash is later model and not early. So would be consistent with 4,9L.

    Vin then the outlier?

    Looks like a 4,7 L dashboard. Have AM 116/47 1104 here and its from 71.
    Maybe there is a 1 missing? Maybe Fabio Collina at Maserati can help

    Hi,

    Very nice talking about these VIN/chassis numbers, but where are the photos ?

    They are good looking car so let's see them.

    Low VIN is a early chassis number ( Vehicle Identification Number)

    You were driving a dark Alfa?

    there are other details i would wonder about. Where is the 3rd air intake on the hood which should be on a 4.9L? Didnt most 4.9L come with Campagnolo Star wheels (same as on the Ghibli and Khamsin). Think the late 4.7L came with 15" Borrani alloys, correct?
    Wrong wipers are just a small detail but why not take the correct ones when restoring a car. They don´t cost much. Certainly no hydrolic Citroen brakes which would also be common for a 4.9L even though some came without. Engine looks clean but one little hose is missing.
    Personally i really like the color but would hesitate to buy a car with an automatic transmission.

    The oil and fuel recommendation plate look to have some age but the omologation plate seems to be and new. Why the difference?
