A 1960 Maserati 3500 GT coupé bodied by Carrozzeria Touring in aluminium superleggera construction, delivered in right-hand drive through UK concessionaire Murray Motors of Fleetwood to a Lancashire customer. Believed to be among only thirty right-hand-drive examples produced and possibly the second such car built, it combines a 220 bhp twin-cam inline-six with elegant gran turismo coachwork.
