This Maserati Indy is a rare and interesting 4.9L version, of which only 300 examples were produced. Sold new in France by the Parisian importer Thépenier, it was delivered on the 7th October 1975 to Mr Saglia, who had exchanged his Indy 4.7 to buy this example, which combines a red bodywork with black leather upholstery and an optional Blaupunkt car radio. The car seems to have spent its life in the Paris region, even belonging to a singer in the early 1990s. As a meticulous collector, its current owner had it extensively restored between 2016 and 2024 by Racelab1, at a total cost of over €160,000.
The bodywork was fully restored and repainted, as well as the underbody which was treated, including the hollow sections. The engine and transmission were overhauled, as well as the running gear. The cooling system was enhanced, as was the air conditioning and the braking system which have been completely redone. Only the patinated black leather upholstery has been intentionally preserved. The car has travelled 2,500 km since this extensive restoration in order to optimize its performance. An inspection report from November 2024 which sets its value at €180,000 emphasised its ‘remarkable workmanship’ and ‘flawless performance’.
As the most powerful and most accomplished version of the Indy, this original French 4.9 example (restored at great expense!) will undoubtedly delight its future owner. Photos © Kevin Van Campenhout
