1961 Maserati 3500 GT Coupe

  • Coachwork by Touring
  • Chassis Number: AM101 1802
  • Engine Number: AM101 1802
This Maserati 3500 GT Coupe by Touring was originally finished in Beige over a black interior. It was completed by the factory on September 4th of 1961 and specified as a U.S. model. The car's first owner was actor Dan Blocker, who played the role of Eric 'Hoss' Cartwright on NBC's television show Bonanza.

It is believed that Mr. Blocker retained the car for four years, and then listed it for sale in the February 27th, 1965 issue of Competition Press. It is believed that the car remained the United States for the next two decades before being purchased by Tom Mee Jr. The car was allegedly restored just prior to his acquisition and remained with his family for over two decades. The next owner was Doug Magnon for the Riverside International Automotive Museum.

The car was highly optioned from the factory when new and given a five-speed manual transmission and four-wheel disc brakes.
