1972 MASERATI INDY 4.9 French vehicle registration certificate Chassis No. AM116491198 • 4.9-liter V8 • Documented French history dating back to 1987 • Bodywork restored in the 2010s; invoices available • Needs to be brought back into running condition No Reserve Unveiled at the 1969 Geneva Motor Show, the Maserati Indy owes its name to the brand’s victories at the Indianapolis 500. Its Vignale-designed fastback body houses four seats and a V8 engine—here in its 4.9-liter version—placing the model squarely in the tradition of great Italian grand tourers. This car’s history in France dates back to 1987. Registered in Paris in 1991, it was sold by Poulain Le Fur in June 1995 at the Palais des Congrès, before joining its current collection in 2005. The bodywork was restored in the 2010s, as documented by a file of invoices. A mechanical overhaul in the mid-1990s is also noted in its history, though no invoices from that time have been preserved. Having been out of service for several years, this Indy requires a tune-up and a general inspection before it can return to the road. With its four seats and 4.9-liter V8 engine, it is ideal for enthusiasts who, once the necessary work is completed, wish to rediscover the joy of traveling in a 1970s Italian GT.   1972 MASERATI INDY 4.9 French registration document Chassis No. AM116491198 • 4.9-liter V8 • Documented French history dating back to 1987 • Bodywork restored in the 2010s, with invoices • Requires recommissioning Unveiled at the Geneva Motor Show in 1969, the Maserati Indy takes its name from the brand’s victories at the Indianapolis 500.
