1965 Maserati Sebring 3500 Series II

AM101 10441roadItaly
Engine
3.5L straight-six, converted to triple-carburetor induction
Colour
Metallic blue

A second-series Maserati Sebring 3500, one of the revised 1965 models featuring distinctive horizontal taillights and quad headlamps, originally delivered to a Miami dealership and likely intended for the American market. The car retains its original metallic blue over red leather colour scheme and is equipped with a 3,485 cc straight-six — converted to triple carburettors — mated to a ZF five-speed gearbox. Repatriated to Europe more than fifteen years ago, its early history remains largely undocumented.

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. The summary is Legacy Metrics’ own writing; we do not reproduce catalogue text.

“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.
