Summary

[edit]
Description

This Maserati A6G 2000 wears Spyder coachwork by Pietro Frua. It was the first Maserati designed by Frua and one of only three to be fitted with a Frua Spyder body. After spending some time in Italy, the car was sold to a California resident in the mid-1950s. A short time later, the Maserati engine was replaced with an American V8. The car was rediscovered in 1997 in the California garage of the late Robert Yorba. It is believed that Yorba purchased the car around 1964; he was a racing enthusiast who participated in SCCA and vintage racing events with his Frua Spyder for 25 years. In 2000 the car was purchased by the current owner, who had it shipped to Modena, Italy, for restoration under the supervision of Maserati historian Dr. Adolfo Orsi.
