THIS PARTICULAR KHAMSIN WAS SOLD NEW IN LOS ANGELES, CA BY MASERATI N.A. AND HAS ONLY COVERED 19,800 MILES SINCE NEW. THE CAR HAS HAD LOTS OF CARE AND ATTENTION LAVISHED ON IT AND ITS ORIGINAL CONDITION ATTESTS TO THAT FACT. THE LIST OF DOCUMENTED JOBS CARRIED OUT ON IT INCLUDE: MAJOR HYDRAULIC OVERHAUL INCLUDING ACCUMULATORS AND STEERING RACK, NEW BIGGER CORE AND HIGHER EFFICIENCY RADIATOR INSTALLED, WATER PUMP REBUILT WITH ADVANCED VITON SEAL AND SEALED BEARINGS, COMPLETELY DISASSEMBLED AND REBUILT WEBERS, STEEL BRAIDED FUEL LINES INSTALLED FOR THE CARBURETORS. HIGH TEMPERATURE SHIELD FOR FUEL LINE. HIGH PERFORMANCE FREE FLOW STEEL EXHAUST INSTALLED. Z RATED PIRELLI TIRES MOUNTED ON THE CLEAN, UNBLEMISHED CAMPAGNOLO ORIGINAL 15" WHEELS.

THE CAR HAS ALL ITS BOOKS AND MANUALS, INCLUDING THE WORKING BLAUPUNKT RADIO WITH GOOSE NECK TUNER AND PAMPHLETS. ALSO WITH THE CAR ARE THE ORIGINAL KEYS (IGNITION AND DOORS, COMPLETE TOOLS (NEVER USED), JACK, 2 WRENCHES AND SPARE TIRE (ALSO NEVER ON THE GROUND).

THE LEATHER INTERIOR IS ORIGINAL, AND IN VERY NICE CONDITION, IT IS FED REGULAR TO REPLINISH THE OILS AND KEEP IT SOFT AND CLEAN. THE MATCHING BLUE CARPET IS CLEAN AS WELL AND SHOWS NO SIGN OF DAMAGE.

THE BODY IS ACCIDENT/RUST FREE AND THE PAINT BRILLIANT AND CLEAN. ALL BODY GAPS ARE TO FACTORY SPECS. THE ORIGINAL PAINT CODE IS STILL ATTACHED TO THE INSIDE FUEL FILLER FLAP.

IT IS HARD TO IMAGINE FINDING A GOOD, COMPLETE, LOW MILEAGE CAR SUCH AS THIS ONE. LET ALONE THE WORK AND FUNDS IT WILL TAKE TO BRING A LESSER CAR TO THIS LEVEL, NOT TO MENTION LOCATING ALL THE CORRECT BOOKS AND TOOLS. IF ONE DOES SUCCEED IN DOING THAT, THE FINAL PACKAGE WILL STILL NOT HAVE THE ORIGINALITY OF THIS ONE.

THIS WELL SORTED KHAMSIN WILL GIVE YEARS OF ENJOYMENT AND OWNERSHIP PRIDE TO ITS OWNER. AS MASERATI VALUES KEEP GOING UP, THE UNDERATED KHAMSIN IS SOON TO FOLLOW. PRICES ARE STARTING TO CLIMB SIGNIFICANTLY OVER WHAT THEY WERE ONLY A FEW MONTHS AGO.

ON A SCALE OF 1 TO 10 WITH 10 BEING THE BEST, THIS CAR IS A SOLID 8.5, IF NOT BETTER.

AS THE KHAMSIN LOOKS ITS BEST WITH EURO BUMPERS, I WILL SUPPLY THE CAR WITH A NEW, COMPLETE EURO BUMPER KIT (SEE PHOTO). IN THIS WAY THE BUYER HAS THE CHOICE OF KEEPING IT ORIGINAL OR SWITCHING TO THE EURO LOOK. IN EITHER CASE YOU WILL HAVE ALL THE PARTS.

Sold for $32,000 spring 2005.
