Maserati and Touring Superleggera will use the Automatic Rétromobile 2025 screen in Paris this month as a level to present a restored Maserati 3500gt.
Produced between 1957 and 1964, the 3500GT is a significant model in Maserati’s history, as it was the brand’s first car to be built in relatively large volumes. And since it was designed with input from Touring Superleggera, it is fitting that the renowned Italian coachbuilder was chosen to handle the restoration.
The restored car is a 1959 example, which like all 3500GTs is powered by a 3.5-liter inline-6 engine. It is a highly original example that was originally delivered to California and was owned by the Dodge family for decades.
Restoring this harvest is not a simple task due to the sautomobilecity of the pieces, since Jay Leno lived the recovery of his own 3500GT a decade ago. However, Touring Superleggera received the help of Maserati Vintagehe, the Ancient Automobile Automobile Manufacturers Department, which provided old technical knowledge and documentation.
