Maserati 3500GT

This car competed in the HSCC Miller Oils Classic Sports Car Championship Race at the Gold Cup meeting at Oulton Park in August 2004.

It's Bob Gilbert's 1961 Maserati 3500GT. Maserati had produced the A6 series of road cars between 1947 and 1956, but only a limited number of cars were built - less than 150 in total - due to Maserati's preoccupation with the Formula 1 and Sports Racing car programme. The 3500GT was, therefore, Maserati's first attempt at building a series production car and 2,226 were built between 1957 and 1964.
