Maserati 4000 - 1964.

  1. I believe it's not a Maserati 4000 (which was the 1970s Ghibli) but a 450S. That would also make it a 1957 car, not a 1964. I know because during practice (not the race) I was actually on the same track (Sebring) as Fangio driving the 450S in 1957. He even waved to me as he passed. I was driving an Aceca Bristol, which was nothing but a pest to Fangio, so that was kind of him.

  2. I think I will put a trident on the grill of my F250 deisel on 35x 12.5 just for the hell of it. As good as a Cadillac with a Deadhead sticker. My wife had dancing bears on her STS just because.

  3. It's a 1964 Maserati 4000 Monza MB Special. With a 4136cc engine, it was first registered on 25 November 1964. The B at the end of the UK registration also pins the date to 1964.

  4. You're right, though it's actually a one-off bitsa (bitsa this, bitsa that...).

  5. Total testosterone charged vehicles back then. Nothing like the pussy-mobiles of today.
