    I am considering selling my 1968 Mistral spyder, which I've owned for 12 years, at one of the Monterrey auctions. Before I sign contracts best to see if anyone in this group would be interested in a private sale.

    4.0 liter (one of 37), ZF 5-speed, matching numbers, Borrani wires, original dry type Lucas fuel injection, hard top, tools, manuals, fitted luggage. Documented ownership history and Maserati Classiche documentation. First owner was Maserati works driver Sig. Rol of Torino. Car has won awards at Amelia Island, Hilton Head, Keeneland, plus others.

    Contact me at [email protected] if seriously interested.

    These are great looking cars- much prettier, IMHO, than the coupes. When they were new and I was a teenager, I used to drive by a neighbor's house and try to catch a glimpse of his in case it was sitting outside in the driveway . . .

    Thank you for all the positive comments. Several people have asked for additional photos and they are available at:
    https://www.dropbox.com/sh/qn7skp7ot09pv59/AAAlRMvHSqiFdQp-QHNu1kE9a?dl=0

    You will see multiple folders. One folder has undercarriage photos, another folder shows the body when it was stripped to bare metal 10 years ago, another shows the engine, soft top, hard top, tools and luggage, etc.

    One of my favorite is this particular interior photo which is over 13MB and you can really zoom in and even inspect the grain of the leather:
