Maserati ghibli 5 speed
1967 Maserati Ghibli
European delivery Ghibli with kilometer per hour speedometer, Euro side marker lights and no emission controls. VIN 154 152 makes this the 76th car built.
We have taken the car twice on a 500+ mile round trip to participate at the Concorso Italiano during car week in Monterey including driving across the stage in 2017for the 50th anniversary of the Ghibli.
All original drivetrain and good compression in all cylinders. Mechanical service at JML Maserati specialist in Santa Barbara in 2019 included rebuilding the 4 Weber carburetors, new sparkplugs, fuel filter, fuse block cover, coolant hoses, rebuild brake calipers and master cylinder, new clutch master cylinder, rebuild steering box, new brake boosters, new brake hoses, and some driveline components. Recently had the starter rebuilt and put in a new battery. The car starts, runs and drives well. Pirelli tires look like new.
Please note this is not a 99 point show car, it is a condition 3 or 4 (“good” not excellent) weekend driver. Sometime along the way it was painted resale red, the original color appears to be medium blue. Red paint was resprayed and is a good "10 foot job".There are one or two small oil leaks at the front of the engine, these are gaskets that are difficult to replace without pulling the engine out of the car. The clutch has been replaced and is in good condition, although it may need adjustment, its difficult to put the car in reverse without shutting off the engine and then starting up again. The car has been in places that get snow before and has had minor rust and professional rust repair. No holes in the floorboards and the usual spots like the bottom of the doors and fenders look good. There are some very small rust bubbles starting under the paint at the front of the hood. The interior is original other than new carpet, seats show their age and are OK with no rips or tears but seat bottoms could use new foam rubber. The original radio is missing and I have not tried to make the heater work. The speedometer bounces around, typical for the old Smiths gauges.
