Around 124 Mistral Spiders were built in total and this particular example is one of only 12 early Spiders equipped with Maserati's fuel-injected, 3.5-liter powerplant derived from the 3500 GT. It is an original left-hand-drive, U.S.-delivery example that was completed on April 2nd of 1965. It left the factory finished in Rosso Cordoba (Cordoba Red) over unusual wild boar skin leather upholstery and Arancio (Orange) carpeting. Optional equipment included air-conditioning, a Becker Grand Prix radio, seat belts, and power door locks. After completion, the car was shipped to the United States via European car importer Max Hoffman's Hoffman Motors Corporation distributorship in New York City.
The early history of the car is not known, but at some point, its original engine was replaced with the current 3.5-liter unit numbered AM101.01871. Around 2015, the Spider was purchased by Neil Peart and soon commissioned a major refurbishment, both cosmetically and mechanically, by Ken Lovejoy. The exterior was refinished in silver by Dave Ferguson at Images Auto Body in Campbell, California, making it consistent with the 'Silver Surfers' theme of Mr. Peart's classic vehicle collection. The interior was trimmed in burgundy leather, red carpeting, and accented by a wood-grained steering wheel. In 2021, the Neil Peart collection sold the car at Gooding & Company's Pebble Beach Concours auction.By Daniel Vaughan | Nov 2021
