This 1968 Maserati Ghibli is a very early production SS #25 of approximately 425 SS coupes produced between 1968 and 1973. It was first delivered new to Rolma Automobili S.r.l. of Milano, Italy. Early history remains unknown until its surfacing in early 2020. At the time, it was imported to the United States.
A cosmetic restoration was performed to include a bare metal repaint in its original Verde Gemma, the windshield trim, rear window trim and bumpers were re-chromed, various lights and trim work replaced as well as all weather-stripping. The interior was reupholstered in the factory original Senape leather with Beige carpeting.
Recent mechanical-service work includes, a full service tune-up to include filters and fluids, New Spark plugs, Gearbox and differential fluids, Carburetor rebuild, Cam cover gaskets, Ignition – Distributor service, Cooling system service, New battery, Various suspension servicing as well as the supply of new Michelin XWX tires.
Power comes from a replacement Maserati 4.7-liter quad-cam V8 somewhere along the way and during the Ghibli's past. The engine was reportedly sourced from another Ghibli and installed sometime during previous ownership.
We purchased this Maserati for our collection and use for various events and rallies. It was enjoyed on this years NE1000 rally, through some of the best roads of Connecticut, New England and Vermont. A total of 1,400 trouble free miles was accumulated driving to, on the event and back home to Autosport Designs, Inc.
Since, the Ghibli has been used for weekend cruising and a few drives to and from The Hamptons. Having developed a noise in 5th gear, we decided to remove the gearbox for a total rebuild.
To date, we have serviced this Ghibli when and where needed to ensure it would be ready for any event we chose to take part in.
On a recent road test (please see video), this Ghibli is excellent in all areas and with absolutely no disappointments. It is complete with factory books, tools, jack/pouch as well as Maserati certificate and records.
