The 1970 Maserati Ghibli 4.7 Coupe, chassis AM115.1568, is a late-production left-hand-drive example bodied by Ghia to a design by Giorgetto Giugiaro, originally special-ordered in November 1970 and finished at Modena that December for the North American market. Delivered new to Hillsborough, California, the car remained in the state for at least four decades and later underwent a comprehensive mechanical and cosmetic restoration. It retains its matching-numbers V8 engine and the desirable ZF five-speed gearbox, and is presented in its original Blue Sera over white leather specification.

Each chassis record is compiled from public auction archives and links to its source material. Ownership, competition and maintenance entries are extracted from those catalogue listings by an LLM, which can make mistakes — please contact us with any corrections.

“Full” and “partial” documentation labels indicate how well each entry is corroborated in the underlying sources, not an audit of the car’s physical paperwork. Names of recent or living owners are withheld for privacy.
