Supplied new to Ing Luciano Rizzi of Vercelli, Italy in August 1966, this series IIA Maserati Quatroporte is 1 of 230 left hand drive cars fitted with a five speed manual gearbox. Having found its way to America it was re imported to the UK from the southern state of Georgia in 1989 and formed part of a large and well known UK car collection along with many other Italian exotics.Having been in a dry climate for some time the car remained in very good order, however it was the subject of much restoration work from 2008 to 2009. This included a complete repaint and interior retrim in its original colour of Grigio Florida with Rosso leather and re chroming of much of the brightwork.In addition the brake system was overhauled a stainless steel exhaust fitted, a re-cored radiator and new coolant hoses and a Kenlowe fan. It was also fitted with fresh rubber suspension bushes and the air-conditioning system completely overhauled with a new pump / matrix. It sits on its correct Borrani wheels shod with fresh Michelin 205/70/15 XWX tyres. Further work was carried out with new under bonnet and boot sound deadening with the correct-type diamond pattern material, renewing the lights / lenses and installing a modern CD stereo system. Many invoices for the work completed accompany the car along with the original USA Georgia title the UK V5C log book and an MoT until July 2010.The car has done little mileage since all this work and remains one of the finest examples currently on offer as its condition is simply fantastic, the 4.2 litre V8 engine runs beautifully and has just had recent οΎ£1,300 service and tune-up by R&D Automotive, Ferrari and Porsche specialists. This is a truly stunning example. Petrol
