LOL, you might be right about that
Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Well, I'm a bit speechless on this one, I seem to recall Walter Baumer had posted a solitary photo of this poor Ghibli some years ago. Well here it is on eBay all the way from Bulgaria yours for £19000. You know it's bad when what you thought was a patch of the original verde gemma paint is in fact.....MOSS! Sorry if it made anyone feel ill. All the best. Mark. Edited to say that this photo upload protocol is a load of rubbish.
Was this car driven or pushed ? https://www.gullwingmotorcars.com/1967-maserati-ghibli-c-4038.htm Ivan Image Unavailable, Please Login
Appropriately posed in front of the Hell Gate Bridge. I haven't been to Gullwing in a while. They really do have a great collection of cars for sale. Most are "honest examples" that could benefit from "straightforward restoration". I see that the shady Khamsin is still for sale: https://www.gullwingmotorcars.com/1979-maserati-khamsin-c-3651.htm I guess there's not much of a market for a stolen car.
This 1967 Maserati Ghibli 4.7 Coupe is a very early production car with matching numbers. Black with grey interior. Originally delivered in Europe, this extremely collectible Maserati has 85k kilometers. Just out of 30 year ownership and long-term storage. An excellent original example for straightforward restoration. Early cars built in 1967 had the drop down hatch, a hood without scoops, toggle switches, and knock off wheels. They also had the early style engine with extra holes for dual spark plugs. An exciting opportunity to own and restore a rare and highly sought-after early production Ghibli. Matching numbers Extremely collectible early production Ghibli European delivery Out of 30 year ownership and storage Excellent original Ghibli to restore Price: $97,500
Hi Carmine: that was quite a place! I enjoyed our visit when we went there together, somehow it is nicer for me to see cars that have lived instead of shiny characterless restored products for sale. So many cars there showed signs of having had quite a life. As I explained when I told the saga of Khamsin 1260 in the Khamsin thread, 1260 was stolen from Al Skolnick (not the musician: a namesake) in New Jersey in the 80's I do not believe the folks at Gullwing know and who knows someone may have gotten a title for it since somehow.
True Marc, most of the vehicles Gullwing has have been driven and enjoyed. But also, some have been "rode hard and put away wet" as we say .
Of course Marc, it was very nice to meet in person after so much on-line friendship. And another thought: I wonder if your GI tract has recovered yet from that Thai food? I recall you found the chili pepper to be exceptionally challenging. I wondered if maybe I should start daubing you down with ice and cold water?
Haha likewise and no that lunch was delicious but its spiciness was not an issue: I am a spicy sauce addict, there are six different ones on my dinner table Few people know that there is a way to measure the heat index of peppers, Google Scoville scale. Well I just like cars that would score highly according to that
This is just a few minutes from me. I'll probably have a look at it this weekend. I suspect it's too much of a project for me at this time. If anyone is interested let me know and I'll give you a report. https://newyork.craigslist.org/stn/cto/d/new-york-82-maserati-quatroporte/7257184975.html Image Unavailable, Please Login
These were in another part of the yard. Also piles of tires, parts, lives of cars, A few motor scooters. All left out in the weather unprotected. Image Unavailable, Please Login
No. I had a good look at the car but did not meet the seller. Only spoke with him on the telephone. I was making my introduction to an offer and he said he wasn't looking for an offer and hung up on me. These are beautiful cars. Really solid construction. But this one is a really rough example. Three flat tires and non-functional latches on the doors, hood and trunk mean a half day of work to even secure it for transport. Then it needs everything. It has some damage on the front left fender and some small dents along the right side. Rear bumper is a little out of whack. Paint, weather seals, who knows what mechanically and electrically. The engine didn't look too bad. But I would not try to start it. And surprisingly, most of the interior did not seem too bad. The seat leather could probably be saved. Plus potentially salvage title: Imagine everything that could go wrong with a car not running and sitting outside for a few winters and that's what this is. The fact that it is still a restoration candidate is testament to Maserati's great build quality.
Another irresistible car from Beverley Hills Car Club. Yours for $14750. Oh and it doesn’t have a gearbox. I might suggest that would be the least of your problems though Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login best to all. M
Hi to you all. I have just bought a 1987 Biturbo Spyder i. It will depart from America in a container soon and arrive Oslo Norway about a month later. The car was on the road in 2012 and have been sitting since. So now it will probably get back on the road in about a year or so. I plan to take it appart and do a full makeover and fix the technical stuff. It is a 2,5 liter USA model with fuel injection.

It is Dark Aquamarine metallic. A greenish dark blue. I want to repaint it to become Acqua Verde metallic. I want it to be bright sparkling turquise metallic like the 3500 Vignale Spyder I posted in the other thread here. I attach the picture one more time here. The car is so small, so I feel a light color would suit it better. They look great in silver too. I also want to find a set of period correct aftermarket Azev A 17 inch alloys. Let me know if you know sbout a set. These could be had in 4 x 100 bolt pattern. The Maserati is 4 x 98, so I guess the fit with a slightly bigger hole..? At least one car here does have them.
Some more... Thisnis a classic from the 80-ies. With good performance. Much faster than the 60s and 70s classics that get all the honor of being a classic Maserati. In Europe, the good Biturbo Spyders are impossible to buy for under 20.000 euro. And they seem to climb. It was a big difference during its lifespan from 1985 to 1994. I guess I need one of each. And we just bought a 228 aswell. No now we will not be wothout work...
