Why this car matters

A rare open Maserati from Neil Peart’s Silver Surfers collection. BaT reports a $465,000 sale in 2026; a conflicting page-title amount is documented in this profile.

  • Frua design, Maggiora body and a fuel-injected 3.5-liter straight-six.
  • The 2026 listing reports a replacement engine and additional refurbishment after the 2021 sale.

One car, a documented identity

Gooding and Bring a Trailer identify the same chassis, with different punctuation. The car’s documented history also connects both listings to Neil Peart.

Replacement 3.5-liter engine reported by the current listing; do not describe the car as matching-numbers.

Published production counts differ between the auction catalogs. No exact rarity count is asserted here.

BaT’s result table, sale history and heading report USD 465,000, also corroborated by the owner-supplied screenshot. Its retrieved page title instead says USD 351,000. The reported result follows the result table; the reason for the title discrepancy is unconfirmed. No present legal owner is inferred.
