Built by Rich Gebhardt, this 1970 Cuda Gran Sport features a very high performance 383 big block, obviously far from stock. The motor makes around 700HP and was built using all the best parts of the day. The semi-radical, high-lift (580), long duration cam has a great lope. Compression in all 8 cylinders is perfect. The Holley 750 Carbs were recently tuned and the motor runs absolutely flawlessly. I recently spent weeks cleaning up and polishing everything on the motor. All new chrome bolts and nuts everywhere I could put 'em. This past week I also spent $750 on an entirely new fuel delivery system. The old system did not allow room for a hood. The 727 trans shifts tightly. It has a reverse manual valve body. The brakes work extremely well, despite the fact they are drum all the way around. All 4 tires are almost brand new. The car leaks no fluid. This pro street Cuda looks radical, but it is very street friendly and can be driven anywhere, even in commute traffic. It does not load up or overheat. The body is in great shape and is very straight, however, there are a few blemishes and imperfections. Surprisingly few for a car that was built/painted 15(?) years ago. The paint shines with a nice gloss. Cut and buffed. Very few small chips on edges that can easily be touched up and buffed down. No doubt there is a fingernail polish this exact color (Hemi Orange) that would do the job well. The interior is good. Door panels are original and in good shape. The seats are covered in black crushed velvet and are in great shape. The headliner has the original overhead console in great shape. Floor console is also excellent with the original shifter. Original dash, guages, steering wheel, carpet, headliner, seats, seat belts and all. The car will come with a new black carpet set (front and rear). Front suspension is stock. This is a balkhalf car. Rear end is coil-over, 4-link with the original Mopar 8 3/4, narrowed. I am unsure of the gears but they feel like 3:55's. The car has polished aluminum work on the balkhalf in the interior and in the trunk. Very sharp! Top-notch workmanship by Rich Gebhardt. Fuel Cell is large. Probably 12 gallon. Polished and chromed wheelie bars. All glass in the car is excellent, chip and crack-free and, believe it or not, original. All lights, turn signals and blinkers operate as they should. Toggle switches for the fuel pump and 2 electric fans are on a guage panel and all work perfectly. The only thing this car could use is a hood. That's what I was aiming to do before I lost storage for the car. That is the reason I have to sell it. If you're looking for the ultimate Cuda and you want it supercharged, here you go. A few pumps of the gas and a tap of the key and this car starts right up, dead cold. But beware, the RPM's come up the split second you crank it, due to the blower. I mean INSTANT RPM's. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask.

Please don't hesitate to make an offer of whatever you feel the car is worth to you. You never know, I may be motivated or in the mood to accept, depending how soon I have to remove the car from the garage. Thank you!

I will accept a $500 deposit within 48 hours of the sale. The balance MUST be paid by bank wire transfer ONLY, and must be completed within 5 days of the sale date (ebay purchase date).

Barbie-themed Maserati Grecale Trofeo: Stick that in your dream house

Wed, Oct 26 2022

A new live-action Barbie movie is coming, which means brand collaborations across several industries. The car-crazy Barbie world is teaming up with Maserati and Neiman Marcus to create a one-off Grecale Trofeo SUV with so much pink that the Mary Kay paint factory may be running low for a while.  As a whole, the Barbie universe is incredibly car-friendly and has featured some iconic models over the years, including Corvettes, a 911, a Ferrari, and various Jeeps. Maserati’s hoping to get on that list with its new Grecale Trofeo SUV. The automaker partnered with Neiman Marcus on the car as part of its Fantasy Gift Launch and to celebrate the release of the new Barbie movie. Only one Grecale Trofeo will be available in the United States as part of the promotion (did they think that's all they could sell?). Like other Trofeos, it uses the 530-horsepower V6 Nettuno engine from the MC20 and features the classic Barbie pink exterior colors. Logos and other graphics accent the loud exterior color. Inside, the black interior features full leather upholstery and leather covering the dash, doors, and other components. The seats feature pink “B” stitching. Maserati and Neiman Marcus estimate the value of the SUV at $330,000. Ten percent of the sales will go to the Barbie Dream Gap Project, so this is more than a vanity project for Maserati and the department store chain. We donÂ’t know much about the other cars that will make appearances in Margo RobbieÂ’s upcoming Barbie remix, but the movieÂ’s teaser poster shows her driving a C1 Corvette with what appears to be a charging port door. An electrified first-generation Corvette would make waves, but even something as unique as that will have a hard time competing with the Grecale for attention.

Maserati expands Quattroporte cable recall to 1,000 units

Mon, Oct 26 2015

It was nearly two years ago that Maserati issued a recall for a number of Quattroporte sedans. At the time, the recall only affected 63 units in the United States. But now the Italian automaker has broadened that campaign to include nearly 1,000 examples across the country. The issue in question is related to the battery positive cable for the alternator and starter motor, the insulating cap of which may not have been installed correctly. The cable may not have been secured properly in the engine bay, too. According to the statement below from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the problem could increase the likelihood of the cable shorting out, causing the wiring harness to overheat and potentially start a fire, or the engine to stall and potentially cause the vehicle to crash. The expanded recall still only affects certain examples of the 2014 Maserati Quattroporte GTS with the V8 engine – namely those manufactured between October 1 and December 31, 2013. That now includes an estimated 984 vehicles in the United States, the owners of which can expect to hear from their local dealer to have the cable inspected and, if necessary, replaced. Related Video: RECALL Subject : Starter Motor Cable may Short to Ground Report Receipt Date: OCT 21, 2015 NHTSA Campaign Number: 15V686000 Component(s): ELECTRICAL SYSTEM Potential Number of Units Affected: 984 Manufacturer: Maserati North America, Inc. SUMMARY: Maserati North America, Inc. (Maserati) is recalling certain model year 2014 Quattroporte GTS V8 vehicles manufactured October 1, 2013, to December 31, 2013. In the affected vehicles, the battery positive cable for the alternator and starter motor may not have its insulating cap installed properly at the starter motor. Additionally, the cable may not be adequately secured in the engine bay. These factors may result in the cable shorting to ground. CONSEQUENCE: If the battery positive cable shorts to ground, the wiring harness may overheat, resulting in a fire. The car also may stall, increasing the risk of a crash. REMEDY: Maserati will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the vehicle to verify that the starter motor cable has a properly installed protective cap and that the cable is adequately secured. If not, the starter motor cable assembly will be replaced. These repairs will be performed free of charge. The recall is expected to begin November 11, 2015. Owners may contact Maserati customer service at 1-201-816-2600.

Maserati Boomerang concept could fetch millions at auction

Wed, Jun 17 2015

It's not every day that a truly head-turning, show-stopping, one-of-a-kind concept car goes up for auction, but that day is coming soon. Bonhams consigned the one and only Maserati Boomerang concept for its upcoming auction in Chantilly, France. The concept, designed by the inimitable Giorgetto Giugiaro at his Italdesign studio, debuted at the Turin Motor Show in 1971, and resurfaced at the Geneva Motor Show the following year in fully functional form. It was based on the Maserati Bora (by the same designer), packing a V8 engine good for 300 horsepower and 300 kilometers per hour (186 mph). What really set it apart, however, was its dramatic wedge shape that could only have been penned by Giugiaro. Of course it was never put into production, but its design was said to have influenced the original Golf that Giugiaro designed for Volkswagen shortly thereafter – to say nothing of the BMW M1, DeLorean DMC-12, Lotus Esprit, and so many others. In correspondence with Autoblog, Bonhams specialist Philip Kantor quoted its pre-sale estimate range at ˆ3-4 million (about $4 million, give or take half a million, at current exchange rates). That might seem like a big chunk of change, but as Kantor points out, "It's a unique, road registered concept car by the best car designer of the 20th century, so in comparative terms it's very realistic." We'll look forward to seeing bidding reach that range when the gavel drops on Sept. 5. For now, you can check out its sharp lines in the high-resolution image gallery above. THE ONE-OF-A-KIND MASERATI BOOMERANG OFFERED AT BONHAMS 5 Sep 2015, The Chantilly Sale A signature concept car of the 1970s, the Maserati Boomerang was a one-off prototype unlike anything seen before. Using geometric shapes and ruler straight lines, its angular style made a strong statement at the 1971 Turin Motor Show. Now the Boomerang is set to cause a stir once again as a highlight lot of Bonhams 5 September Chantilly Sale. Philip Kantor, Bonhams European Head of Motoring, said: "The Boomerang was the first car of its time to create such a strong, angular style statement. It's considered by many to be one of the most remarkable designs of the 20th century and the 'grandfather' to the Volkswagen Golf Mk 1.
