- I am selling my clean title 1966 Rivera Gran Sport , 
- rebuilt motor with less than 5,000 miles on rebuild, 
- 400 trans rebuilt about 10 years ago, 
- car had been repainted about 11 years ago and not done very well, body work is not very good on pass front fender body line
- the body is showing bad prep work in a few places so it is bubbling on doors and fenders and 1/4 lowers, there is battery acid that had eaten thru the DS fenderwell which is very common on these cars
- the underbody, floor pans and trunk are in excellent shape, see pics of the car on the rack, there is a little 2 inch piece of rust on underside of DS 1/4 panel -see pics
-the interior is very nice for original seats , dash , door panels etc
- am radio still works, along with the gauges= oil pressure, temp, amp meter, wipers, map light, signals,
- car still has original spare and jack set-up
-this is the single 4 barrel GS option with the "MW" coded 425
- has a homemade fan shroud but it is not correct but still functional, so I didnt want to remove it, but is definately not correct for this car
-car has the posi rearend, see pic
-GS logo on the fenders and the glove box as it should, along with correct 1966 only aluminum valve covers, and chrome air cleaner
-car runs and drives good, it does have a squeaking sound= which I think is either the brakes or the speedo cable but not positive on either just a guess
-the car runs and drives and stops, I just drove it 70 miles an hour and it floats nice, plenty of power, smooth shifting
- havent seen any leaks hitting the ground, 
- has redline aftermarket tires which were an option when new
-power steering is good and easy to use, 
- does now have a power seat option I added to the car but havent finished the wiring but does include the wiring and proper switch plate
- also this is a mid level optioned car has manual windows, but has rear defrost (that works), bucket seats with floor shift console, tilt wheel, 
-has keys for the ignition trunk and doors but the driver door latch is picky on when you close it, sometimes it latches, other times you have to pull up on the door = but i will include a latch that works correctly
-this is a project if you want to show this car, or you can just cruise in a 1966 time capsule, you can build it as you go, or just turn the key and just drive it!!!
-This car is also for sale locally so I reserve the right to end auction early due to local sale.

2014 Maserati Quattroporte goes on a night run

Wed, 02 Jan 2013

While it was in development, Maserati rolled out its 2014 Quattroporte for a little testing, but rather than slather the big luxury sedan in gobs of camouflage to protect from it prying eyes, engineers used the cover of darkness to conceal the vehicle's design. Then they made a video about their cleverness and posted it on the Internet. The team spent some time whipping around the Balocco Proving Ground with chief test driver Fabrizio Galvan at the controls to evaluate the sedan's new drivetrain, noise levels and handling in the real world.
We got our hands on the 2014 Quattroporte last month for a first drive ahead of the vehicle's North American debut at the 2013 Detroit Auto Show. You can read our impressions here, but first, take a look at the video below for a new glimpse at the machine's development.

Learn why this man has four different Maserati 3500GT classics

Wed, 26 Feb 2014

When you're born, it's impossible to know what sort of cars you'll be into as an adult. Your dad might be into old Mopars while your mom prefers a Ford Mustang. You, on the other hand, might end up being a fan of English cars (that was the case with your author, at least). Regardless of which vehicle type, era or marque you prefer, though, it's usually possible to trace back to the exact moment you fell in love with them.
For Frank Mandarano, his love of all things Maserati started at its birthplace in Italy, before spawning into a passion that saw him found a club and take possession of four 3500s over the years. One car in Mandrano's one-make collection stands out, though - a rare 3500GT that was imported into Mexico in 1960. It is a sweet sounding and gorgeous coupe to behold, making it the perfect subject for the crew at Petrolicious. Scroll down and have a look.

Maserati Quattroporte suits up with Ermenegildo Zegna [w/video]

Wed, 11 Sep 2013

You know what no one has ever said? The Maserati Quattroporte needs more Italian style. Just the same, Maserati has teamed up with Ermenegildo Zegna to give the QP just that.
Revealed here at the Frankfurt Motor Show is the (deep breath now) Maserati Quattroporte Ermenegildo Zegna Limited Edition Concept. And by "concept", Maserati means it intends to put it into production, likely with very few tweaks over what you see here.
So what do you see here? A QP in a business suit, to sum it up. It's got a beautifully deep bronze paintjob and an interior with the finest wool textile and soft leather upholstery. The lustrous paint repeats on the wheel spokes, and of course some discreet Zegna badges inside and out. The fashion house also worked up some special fitted luggage, as you can see from our gallery of high-resolution photos from the show floor, along with the stock shots, a video and a press release below.
