Description for Maserati Other 1954

NUMBER 4 of 7, 3300 ORIGINAL MILES 1954 MASERATI A6GCS BARCHETTA FACTORY RECREATION. This vehicle was owned by a mature and discriminating enthusiast who had a penchant for high performance Italian sports cars. #4 of 7, this immaculate example was custom built by hand as ordered by the client. Barchetta #4 or "little boat" in Italian, was rebodied from an actual Maserati A6GCS Barchetta, so the dimensions and body lines are true to the hyper rare original. The combination of being extremely light and perfectly balanced make this Corsa Sport a real performer and that's putting it mildly. Beating most modern day exotics, horsepower to weight ratio translates to 5.9 lbs. per HP. Needless to say, it pulls like a freight train and does so very quickly. Header back exhaust sounds downright mean! 0-60 mph is achieved in under 4 seconds and the estimated top speed is 160 mph. The lustrous Glasurit Maserati Red paint shows flawlessly as it always been garaged and covered when not in use. Vehicle has not been hit or smoked in and the interior is in perfect condition. The car has never been dragged, raced, or abused under any circumstances. No expense was spared in building the car and it was built to meticulous standards. Vehicle includes all documentation shown. A true blue chip collectible, this showroom quality car will be the crown jewel of any collection or show. Eligible for the US replica racing association series and possibly historic race car series, you will be hard pressed to find another Barchetta like this one. Own the rebirth of an Italian race car legend. The car is registered and has a clean title. Please ask all questions and arrange for all inspections before bidding.
