Vehicle Details

AI Listing Summary

This 1961 Maserati 3500 GT Touring is a French-origin example with documented history since its 1960 purchase. It boasts desirable factory options and has recently undergone a four-year restoration, making it a compelling classic car offering.
However, prospective buyers should be aware of the engine running-in period required post-restoration and the fact it was repainted blue at one point prior to the recent restoration to the original color.

Condition

7

The car underwent a complete restoration between 2021 and 2025, with significant investment. It has been returned to its original color scheme and the mechanics have been overhauled. However, the listing mentions that the future purchaser will need to undergo a running-in period for the engine, suggesting it's not in perfect 'Pristine' or 'Outstanding' condition. Slight wear was visible in paint prior to restoration, and the need for a running-in period suggests it is not in perfect mechanical condition.
