I acquired this car and sourced more than $27,000 worth of parts in order to restore this rare and beautiful car to its original beauty. There were only 2,255 in total produced, and this car was manufactured on December 10, 1963 and sold in New Jersey on the 31st of March, 1964. Body color is red. Designed byGiorgetto Giugiaro, it is arguably one of the most influential designs in the history of automotive styling. In its time, a fast 120 mph with great torque and comfort. Many were purchased by the Italian government and used by the Highway Patrol and Carabinieri patrol Cars, respectively named Pantera (Panther) and Grazziella (gazelle).These cars were very suitable for high speed pursuits.Circumstances prevent me from completing my project and fulfilling my dream of driving this car on the California Coast Highway 1. Pictured are some of the steps taken along the way: powder coated wheels, two sets of new tires, new radiator, two transmissions and thirteen containers of parts. PLUS! the car is filled with chrome and other pertinent parts. Included is a brand new rotisserie. As a guide, Hagerty insurance price guide lists the cars as Fair: $44,500; Good: $68,200; Excellent: $111,000; Concourse: $142,000. This car falls below fair and in the restoration categoryNext on my list was to repair and rebuild the spot in the front passenger side and driver's side floor.Thank you for looking. I will try and answer any questions you might have. I do have a very modest reserve in the hope it will be brought back to its deserved glory.Best of luck in your bidding.
