The 1963 Apollo 3500 GT, chassis 1004, is among the earliest production examples of this rare American GT, of which only 90 were built between 1962 and 1965. Engineered by Milt Brown and styled by Ron Plescia and Franco Scaglione, with coachwork by Carrozzeria Intermeccanica, it combines Italian bodywork with a Buick 3.5-litre V8 and four-speed manual gearbox. Believed originally delivered on the West Coast, the car presents in deep burgundy with a prior restoration and period-correct Borrani alloy wheels.

This car's public record is built from its auction and competition history. Register your ownership and privately add your own records to make it a verified Legacy Metrics passport — provenance that backs your car's value at sale and gives your insurer evidence to price against. Roy reviews and verifies every registration personally.

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.
