Dear all. I have been inspired by the ‘Pictures of old Maseratis’ thread to question why there are so many posts about the (doubtless worthy and interesting) QP1 In the GHIBLI thread…../-; Thanks!,
The brown car is #002 My photo too. I remember emailing the registry. We were all excited to fill in the first one.
I found a cover that fits a '67-'73 Maserati Ghibli. Its a Sealskin cover, model # 01-210-G-3. It measures 180" long and is a snug fit. The next size up is 197" which was ridiculously too large. Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
The Pirelli CN12 are back in stock https://www.longstonetyres.co.uk/215-70wr15-pirelli-cinturato-cn12.html We also have the earlier tyre 205 VR 15 Tyres - Classic PIRELLI CINTURATO ™ CN72
Hi Yes sorry about this one. this tyres production has moved factories, so there are all sorts of tests that have to be done on a re-industrialised tyre to make sure that they are up to standard - these are pirelli after all - but this has caused some delays and also means we cannot give a set in stone date for them. i am told they hope to go into production ant the end of this month, maybe February. which will mean it might be as late as March when i get them. if you are des[erate in the mean time the only tyres worth considering are made by Michelin. https://www.longstonetyres.co.uk/tyres/185-16.html Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login both brilliant tyres. thought the Michelin X is only S rated and not really a sports car tyre, it is a genuine period tyre and exceptional quality of course because it is Michelin. what car is it? if it is really early you might want these. https://www.longstonetyres.co.uk/tyres/185-16/600-x-16-pirelli-stella-bianca.html
Just seen the Joop Stolze dealership is closing with a very large 5 part auction. Among the lots are a late (1973) Indy, 4 Meraks! and Ghibli 022 which is missing its original engine and is now Chevy powered. https://www.classiccar-auctions.com/en/lot-details/28962/auctions/Classics/maserati-ghibli-1968 as you will see, it also has many other undesirable features like a scaffold pole artfully bolted behind the (non original) seats to act as a seatbelt anchor! It does seem to have a very big stereo though! totally unrealistically estimated at €115-135000. Bidding starts at 20k though…. got to see what else is on offer now! M
Anyone have a comp on what a 4.7 Ghibli dashboard in good condition with all instruments and toggles etc. is worth? Not much out there. I bought one, and another ZF S5 325 gearbox (this time NOT from someone in Mexico City... )
I dunno but I’m pretty sure one would be hard to find. My Ghibli has the toggles So much cooler than the rocker switches

Greetings all Ghiblisti. I appreciate that this post is of very niche interest, but I thought I’d put the information out there in the hope of saving some frustration for someone. if you need a new aluminium pipe adapter for your brake master, you will have found it the rarest of beasts. I knew it was common to the 101 Land Rover, but when I looked, there were none available.You can now find it here however: https://www.101parts.co.uk/shop/brakes/cylinders-brakes/brake-master-cylinder-adapter/ not the cheapest, but if you need one, you need one. best to all. Mark
This is a nice Ghibli article: https://www.yahoo.com/autos/classic-maserati-ghibli-benchmark-grand-120000229.html
