1964 Maserati Mistral Spyder 3500



what a lovely little beast. Dunno why anyone would choose red for the interior, but perhaps that was the only way it came in '64.
One of 125.

Fortunately, prolly another example of a car I couldn't fit in without some leg trimming.

That and the $100k price escalation since I started this post.

Oooh! I would like that. Not so sure I'd be happy with the conversion from fuel injection to triple sided raft Webers though.

I am absolutely amazed to discover myself on this rock ball rotating around a spherical fire. It's a very odd situation. And the more I look at things I cannot get rid of the feeling that existence is quite weird. -- Alan Watts

seemed an odd change to me

and up another couple 100

The uninstalled fuel injection system is included, made by Lucas. With that as the brand, I can see converting to more reliable Webers.

What's my "Super Power"? I can make active threads go stone-dead with a single post. I try to use this power only for good and not for evil but, you know... stuff happens.

great vid! thanks the post.
you definitely hear the camera car with the Mistral mixed in, but hard to separate unless one mounted the mic as a radio on the Mistral.
A bit more Hollywood than a vid like this.
Good explanation on the Lucas vs Weber.
I do like the back end of the '64 better.
