AM101 10021roadItaly

Engine: 3.5L inline-six with Lucas fuel injection, five-speed gearbox
Colour: 'Rosso Cordoba' (red) over white leather interior

A second-series Maserati Sebring (chassis 021) with the rarer 3.5-litre engine, one of just 94 such examples produced. Ordered in December 1964 by the Belgian marque importer François Staumont and delivered in March 1965, the car was finished in Rosso Cordoba over white leather with a Nardi steering wheel. After years in Belgium it was imported to the United States, where it received a comprehensive restoration including specialist attention to its original Lucas fuel injection system. It retains its matching-numbers engine and correct period specification.
