AM101 998roadItaly

Engine: 3.5L inline-six, Weber carburettor setup, tuned for road use

Chassis AM101*998 is a Maserati 3500 GT coupé bodied by Carrozzeria Touring in the Superleggera method, believed to have been delivered new to the United States as one of the final examples completed in 1960. Equipped with Weber carburettors, it is documented through Maserati ownership registries as having passed through the hands of noted American collectors before a comprehensive restoration in Connecticut that addressed the engine, brakes, suspension, and interior. It subsequently moved to the United Kingdom in 2020.
