Hey there Maserati collectors here is a dry climate, all origina, unmolested 1979 merak ss for sale. The car has been in south texas for over 35 years . I have known this car and the last 2 owners for over 30 years . This car starts right up and runs ok, no smoke or funny noises but it does take a few minutes to clear its throat. The paint is faded but original I believe and needs to be redone but no evidence of rust or corrosion or previous wreck damag, very straight . The original interior is in great condition with only driver seat wear and some fadin, the steering wheel looks awesome . The car smells like new inside. The engine compartment is very tidy and complete . The transmission shifts well and the clutch feels good, the car is due for a set of plugs I would say but it clears up and runs o, the brakes are on top and stop the car . the undercarriage is very clean as is the suspension, it has like new looking matching goodyear tire, all the glass is original and nic, the air conditioning is complete but not blowing cold . THIS CAR ONLY SHOWS 26184 original miles and I believe it but the car is being sold miles exempt per texas law on a car over 10 years old. I don't know exactly the dollar value of this car but I don't know of many Italian exotic cars available for less then 50,000 dollars now days and most are 6 figures , my reserve is low in my opinion any questions call jay at 956 624 2669 . I can help you arrange worldwide shippin, read my feedback and bid with confidence
