I was told of a photo of this car in northern Califorinia U.S.A. in 1963, but have not seen it yet. Does anybody know what happened to this car, I have heard that it was rebodied into a 3500/T ~Touring is this so? I know it was shown in white, I have seen a photo of the car in Blue with a white top. Does anyone else know more as to where the car is today?? ~Ciao!

Thanks for posting the rendering of the 3500/A prototipo,...let's keep this thread going to find this car! Frank M., can you shed some info here? Herr Walter Baeumer, do you have anything???? ~Ciao, and best~
I am all out of ideas on this one. Could have been re bodied, I do like the car, looks very clean and uncluttered, unlike some of he other one off cars. Ciao, FGM
You show here 3 (!) different versions! The first 2 shots show the Allemano-prototipo and the 2nd shot shows a 3rd (!) Allemano-one off next to a standart 3500 Touring. PLease note the different greenhouse of the 3rd Allemano! Ciao! Walter

Walter, thank you for the information on the 3500/A's. By no means is this information going to be used on "my web site". Like you,.. I have shared all VIN information on my Maserati cars with you, as a member of the Maseati community. I have a great amount of respect for you and your passion for our cars,...any information that you share is greatly appreciated. I was just trying to locate the history on the 3500/A's and you have helped a great deal. Thank you.
Walter, this was the Brener collection auctioned by RM at Monterey 2003. I only see the 5000GT by Allemano? Image Unavailable, Please Login
Boudewijn, as mentioned before - the 3500 GT with Allemano coachwork was converted in the very late 50s to Touring specs! And #002 is listed in your last post, now -and correctly- as a Touring 3500GT. Ciao! Walter
Which Allemano is this? It looks like the 2 tone color car but has whire wheels and has no lights in the grille. Ruud Bax Image Unavailable, Please Login
I believe thats #008! Possibly repainted prior to its sale to the USA and with minor differences? Ciao! Walter
