Here’s a video showing it at auction

According to the Maserati factory certificate of authenticity (No. 30/2013) further supported by accompanying factory records, this Ghibli was built in September 1971, finished in Celeste Chiaro (metallic blue), trimmed with black leather interior, and outfitted with “Fuse” Campagnolo wheels. Documentation accompanying the car includes copies of the original Maserati Delivery Note, Internal Factory Oder, End of Line Data Sheet, and Final Tests Data Sheet with handwritten specifications for this car confirming the details and assembly for this Ghibli SS. Upon completion, the car was delivered to the first owner, Pierre Cornet, via French Maserati dealer, Etablissements Thepenier, Saint Cloud, France. Cornet, Directeur General of S.O.L.E.P. and loyal Maserati customer (including his ownership of a prior Ghibli), retained the car until 1985 when it was sold to the second owner. In 2002, the car was purchased by noted collector/enthusiast Abba Kogan who sold the car to the next owner in 2005.

By 2012, the car became the subject of a comprehensive bare metal restoration performed by Automotive Restorations of Stratford, CT documented with photographs and copious receipts detailing the metal work addressing all areas of the body including correction for minor rust which was limited to small water-prone areas as typically found on these cars. During the restoration the interior was removed entirely and retrimmed with black leather as originally delivered. The interior bright work and details were polished and refinished as needed, and new carpets and headliner installed. The car was finished in the correct light metallic blue and all chrome and polished exterior trim was refinished to a high standard. The completed car was exhibited at the 2013 Amelia Island Concours d’Elegance where it earned a coveted “Amelia Award” in the Sports and GT Cars (1963-1974) class. Following the Amelia exhibit, this Ghibli went on to participate in the New England 1000 rally, completing it in May 2013. Showcasing once again both beauty and performance excellence, this Ghibli completed the 2017 Chopard Rally held in Dubai and, in 2022, completed the United Arab Emirates Mille Miglia covering 1,000 trouble-free miles in cool air-conditioned comfort.

Under current ownership, services and general maintenance have been regularly performed including 2021 and 2022 replacement of filters, gaskets, spark plugs, new oil tank hose, new AC compressor belt and condenser/compressor fan system rewiring, carburetor cleaning, selected paint touch up and blending, gauges disassembled and cleaned, new driver’s side window channel replacement, sun visor restoration, and interior switches and various buttons restored or replaced as needed.

Today this Maserati Ghibli presents in beautiful condition. The odometer indicates 67,097 kilometers which are believed to be reflective of original kilometers travelled since new.

This sensational 4.9 SS was delivered new to West Nyack, New York, and fitted with the desirable five-speed ZF manual gearbox. It was recently the recipient of a meticulous five-year rotisserie restoration performed by the consignor, a Ghibli specialist with over 40 years of experience restoring European sports cars. The Ghibli was completely disassembled, and the body was chemically stripped, neutralized, etched, and acid dipped. The engine, suspension, and differential were rebuilt, various ancillary systems attended to, and its five-speed manual gearbox received new seals and bearings. The Maserati was repainted in black with Glasurit paint and the interior was retrimmed in cream leather, with the dash re-covered in correct “mouse fur” sourced from Italy. The consignor’s thoughtful dedication is evident in the smallest details, such as the correct Arman wiper arms.

To see a Ghibli restored to this level is uncommon, and this example’s handsome colors and 4.9 SS specification make it even more appealing. Accompanied by a tool kit, jack, manual, restoration photos and a restoration summary, this is a fantastic representation of one of Maserati’s most usable and highly acclaimed road cars

This beautiful 4.9SS was produced in July 1971, finished in the stunning combination of Blue Sera (Dark Blue) with a Senape (Tan) Leather interior. Sold to the Baker Motor Company of Atlanta, Georgia, the Ghibli spent much of its earlier life in the US before being repatriated into the EU and restored to the condition you see here.
The bodywork of the Ghibli was carefully stripped back, restored and painted back to the correct shade of Blue Sera. The interior benefitted from a re-trim in its original tan leather and the motor was serviced and treated to a new clutch.
Our Ghibli is offered with its original build sheet, bill of sale and Maserati Classiche Certificate of Origin.
