1974 Maserati

I’ve owned this 1974 4.9L Bora serial# 11749US688 since 1985...now showing only 21,000 original miles with all numbers matching.  No accidents, dings or rust. Repainted in 1997 to perfection with best quality German Glasurit paint. To date no imperfections... finish still like glass. Just a stunning, breathtaking combination of black over tan with stainless steel roof, bumpers and rocker panels/sills.

Bora #688 Condition

The exterior and interior of this left hand drive 4.9L  Bora have been well cared for and are immaculate as can be seen in the images. The body has no dents, dings or rust. The brushed stainless steel original roof is excellent with no dents or waves. The engine and bay are very clean as is the trunk under the front hood. The 5-speed manual gearbox is in excellent condition and shifts easily and flawlessly when engine is warm. The 4.9 engine is smooth, healthy and strong. This Bora comes with 2 installed fuel pumps; if one should quit, the alternate pump can be accessed by a flick of a switch in the engine compartment... both pumps work fine. All gauges and original clock function as they should. The battery is new and there is a battery cutoff switch installed in the trunk. The brakes are solid and the hydraulic switches all work, as well as the “pedal sled” moving all 3 pedals closer or further from the driver. The original factory Blaupunkt radio is still installed and working well, as are the power windows and disappearing antenna. Original unused spare tire with cover still in car, as well as original owners manual and tool kit. Great fit and finish as all body seams are spaced evenly and every panel is well aligned. In the 27 years since I’ve purchased this Bora, it has been the easiest to maintain of all the exotic cars I’ve owned. With all that has been upgraded and replaced on this car, the new owner should have few concerns…it has been well sorted out. This truly is one of the best grand touring (GT) cars ever conceived, allowing for comfortable driving with power...wrapped in timeless beauty by Giorgetto Giugiaro.
