Sculpted by Ghia’s head stylist Giorgetto Giugiaro, the Ghibli 4.9 SS Spider was hailed as the one of Italy’s most thrilling new designs.

The company backed up the Ghibli Spider’s good looks with a four-cam aluminum V-8 capable of a top speed of 170 mph, making this car one of the fastest production vehicles available at the time. This car, chassis AM115S/49.1237, is one of only 24 examples shipped to the US with the five-speed ZF gearbox. After an extensive five-year restoration in 2009 by marque specialist, Martin Logé, the car went on to win a Best of Marque award at Concorso Italiano in 2014 and a Best in Class award at the Greystone Mansion Concours d’Elegance in 2015.

The car is presented in show-quality condition with a rare factory hardtop, fitted luggage, correct tool kit, as well as other factory literature.‏
