Maserati Other Indy America (1972)
for sale

Price: US $75,000.00

Description:

This is a properly equipped Indy as it includes 4.7Litre Engine, Power Steering, Air Conditioning, and 5-Speed Gearbox. It is an absolute delight to drive. The Indy was Maserati's replacement for the Mexico and served as the 2+2 counterpart to the Ghibli. The Indy was also Maserati's most popular selling car when it was in production.
I have been a collector of Maserati Automobiles since the mid-1980's when I acquired a pair of 3500GTI Vignale Cabriolets and have owned virtually every model of Maserati GT cars. I am 6'7 tall and have found Maserati's to be exceedingly comfortable for me (Wilt Chamberlain owned a Ghibli when they were new). And, the Indy is by far the most comfortable of them all.
I purchased the car in 2002. The prior owner acquired the car in 1994 from Continental Motors. When he bought the car in 1994, it had 96, 000km (59, 520mi) – now has 101, 500km (62, 930mi). I also note from the Continental Motors Invoice that the car was described as Brown with Biege(sic) Interior. The person I purchase the car from had the car painted French blue and also had the leather died in the current red color. I purchased this car in order to have a driver since I knew that I would not be able to work on my other Maserati’s for a few years while I was building and growing our business. I used this car regularly for 8 years and then parked it for the past 5 years.
I just had the hood frame and sheet metal re-fabricated and painted as it had typical corrosion issues. Also just replaced both fuel pumps and performed some other needed maintenance. The original bi-metal Borrani wheels have just been powder-coated and a set of new Vredestein tires were installed. I drove the car Sunday for the first time in 5 years and it performed very well. I look forward to driving it to New Glarus, WI this weekend.
The car runs strong and does not smoke. Just returned from 375 mile trip in this car. Everything performed great. several sustained 90mph runs in great comfort. No oil consumption.
I actually really enjoy the Indy’s because they are truly comfortable and great road cars. I would have never thought to paint an Italian car French Blue but in reality – the car really pops.
