Ok enquiry sent to Japan, about the barnfind, we will see what info I can get back... Speaking of the land of the rising sun here is one in rather better condition being exercised with gusto last year in a club event slalom, looks like it is AM120-138: in any case that's the spirit, Banzai!

Hi Roger, Yes it matches the car in the photo below, my publisher went to see a Mangusta at the home of the then owner in I would say about 2013, the Goose was all rusty so he looked much more at the K which surprised the owner. These are the only two photos I have, automatic. Very good color combination for a K. Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login

Hello fellow Maserati people, a friend of mine is in the process of rebuilding his Khamsin with citroen hydraulics. He needs the clutch slave cylinder which seems to be a part different from the standard citroen parts. It is part number 27 in the attached drawing. Can somebody give me a hint if this part is available somewhere (preferrably in Europe) or is used in another vehicle with the same hydraulic system? Help is appreciated as always. And on a side note: I am glad my Mexico has conventional hydraulics, the Citroen system is a bit strange at times..... CU lbird Image Unavailable, Please Login
A nice fashion prop for a Gucci shoot: I had long heard of a K being used in a seventies fashion shoot with bell bottom pants in Playboy, supposedly the USA edition but have never seen it. Not sure if this is it or part of a different shoot but this photo showed up yesterday on Instagram. London, seventies with the "Mar 10)" aka Mario demonstrator Khamsin AM120-337 of Mario Tozzi Condivi the importer at the time, MTC cars, friend of de Tomaso. See here: https://www.instagram.com/p/CZxChjOIuU4/ and clumsy screen capture below if you do not use IG. I saw the car at McGraths in April 2019 when gathering interview and photography/filming for the book Classiche Masters; it has an amazing green interior which you can see here, sorry no other interior photos it was a busy day.

Amazing green ... and here I though only Lamborghini did that! Is that the way it left the factory or is it a custom post production job?
Green? ...I thought it was regular cream color leather, distorted into a "green" by the tint of the windshield glass.... No? Marc, you are saying it is truly a green interior..!? - Art
It is exactly as in the two photos I showed, a very unique green, no distortion. Makes you wonder if Mario Tozzi Condivi smoked less official substances than Cuban cigars when he ordered that;-) Edit: actually see here on McGrath's site there is a gallery on the restoration of 337: https://www.mcgrathmaserati.co.uk/restoration/khamsin/
Oh contrare, I'm having linguini con vongole tonight for dinner. Anyone understand the Calaveras reference? Don't all JUMP at once!
As much as I think that my English is much better than your German (and I can very good speak the "th", just to let you know...) - I meant the question about Bob`s Espada as he mentioned it sooo often. It was irony, Marc............
Calaveras County, California is site of the world (?) famous frog jumping competition. In gold rush country.
