It took me one year, but I am happy to say that the result meets my expectations.
I found this one last year on mobile.de in France. From there it was towed for me to Chech over Poland. Yes, these guys don't give a sh** and when the towing hook is missing the hook is mounted to the bonnet... Also the under body was slightly jammed from loading the soon beauty on the truck.
From Chech I towed it to Vienna, where I cut off the damaged parts and serviced it. It did not see any service in 10 years but it was also not moved in that time. The service history up to then was complete and many parts like dampers and intake-flap were exchanged by Maserati. 24.000€ bills for 60.000km's.
The price for the car was reasonable. But in the end it will cost me 3 times the price I paid for the car which is still slightly lower than a running 3200 would have cost me. Would never do it again!
Beside the bodywork there was a lot to do: Cooler was leaking, window micro switch defective, shock adjustment front left not working, actuator inside broken, leather needed refurbishment, timing belt past its age etc. Still need to do the valve adjustment this winter.
Hope you like the pictures
