Description for Maserati Other 1969

Well here goes the story of this 1969 Maserati Mexico it was purchased new from the 1968 Chicago auto show by a wealthy lawyer from the north shore area. He gave the car to his son to take to Carnegie Mellon university looks like the kid had a good time with it because when he came back for the summer with it the car had bald tires all five even the spare was bald I was just 6 when my father who owned a body shop in Barrington IL had the owner bring the car to my father who was very well known for his work on imports he was always a perfectionist and ask him about repair the car had a few spots of minor body damage and needed a few parts which back the in late 1970 early 1971 or so were available but could take months to get so rather than fix it he asked my father if he was interested and of course my dad with his love for import and exotic cars couldn't pass it up well so there the car sat in our body shop in Barrington IL it was one of those things that when we had time we would eventually get to it as time goes it kept going and going so the car was kept inside a controlled enviorment for over 42 years. My father fell ill from cancer in 2012 I decided it was time resurrect the Maserati so maybe I could take my father for a ride like he took when I was six but too much needed to be done and unfourtunatley he passed before I could finish.
