1961 Maserati 5000 GT Coupe ‘Indianapolis’From an Important Maserati CollectionCoachwork by AllemanoEstimate Available Upon RequestChassis: AM103.014

Maserati built just 34 examples of the 5000 GT between 1960 and 1965, with eight Italian coachbuilders supplying their own distinct designs for the chassis.

Regarded as a “Car of Kings,” the 5000 GT was the fastest road-going automobile of its day, with its fuel-injected, four-cam V-8 engine derived from the legendary 450S sports racing car.

The 5000 GT offered here, chassis AM103.014, was the first of 22 examples to receive elegant Coupe coachwork by Carrozzeria Allemano.

This one-off “Indianapolis” coupe was featured in the Maserati 100th Anniversary Exhibit in Modena and has been conscientiously restored to the original factory colors of Grigio Montebello over red leather upholstery.
