1973 Maserati Bora
VIN: 24662 / Body No.: 300279 / Car No.: 15183
Odometer: 17,559+ km
Engine: 4.7L V8 DOHC
Trans.: 5-spd Manual (transaxle)
Introduced at the 1971 Geneva Salon, the highlight of the show was undoubtedly the sensational new Maserati Bora. Named after the wind of Trieste, Italy, the Bora was the work of Giorgetto Giugiaro's ItalDesign, at least as far as its body shell was concerned. One of the first 'new generation' models to appear following Maserati's acquisition by Citron, the Bora used the latter's hydraulic technology to adjust seats and pedals, raise the headlamps and operate the excellent power-assisted brakes.
The mid-mounted engine design was Maserati's first and included the familiar four-cam V8 in 4.7-litre or 4.9-litre form. The five-speed transaxle came from ZF, and the all-independent double-wishbone suspension was penned by Giulio Alfieri. A slippery shape plus 310bhp made for a very fast car - top speed was around 160mph - and the Bora had acceleration and handling to match.
After being bought by De Tomaso in 1975, Maserati struggled, and the Bora was discontinued during 1978. A total of 564 Boras were produced, of which 275 were fitted with the 4.9-litre engine and the other 289 were fitted with the 4.7-litre engine. A rarity to begin with, there are very few of them left today.
This 1973 Maserati Bora 4.7 Coupe is a highly original example ready for straightforward restoration. Finished in attractive Azurro Chiaro (light blue) metallic with tan leather interior, this highly sought-after Bora came out of long-term ownership and storage. It comes complete and is very straight and solid. The interior is currently being reupholstered to original condition but, otherwise, the car has never been restored. Be the first to have the privilege to do so. Well worth the minimal effort and with a lot of investment potential. A rare Italian thoroughbred, this exotic Maserati supercar is a suburb buy!
Extremely desirable Maserati Bora.
Left for many years in extended storage.
Runs well but needs additional servicing.
Desirable leather interior has recently had significant work.
Hydraulics recently serviced.
