Comments: |
The 4 CM 1500 # 1525 has been delivered new to Geneva/Switzerland in April |
| 1934 to its first owner Fernando Barbieri who has raced it intensively until 1938. | |
| There is to mention an amazing 4th O.A. at the Targa Florio 1937 and a 8th | |
| O.A. at the Grand Prix of Monza 1938 beside lots of more results listed below. |
| There is little known about its early history until it appeared in the Netherlands | |
| at the dealership of Rudy Pas who obviously has sold it to the Japanese | |
| Maserati collector Yoshijuki Hayashi in 1979. In the early nineties Hayashi | |
| decided to sell most of his incredible Maserati collection which included beside | |
| our 4 CM 1500 # 1525 the most famous Maserati like 4 CLT/48 # 1600, 250 F | |
| # 2514, 300 S # 3058 and 450 S # 4509. |
| As far as we know the whole Hayashi collection were sold through Symbolic Motor | |
| Cars in San Diego, CA and were spread throughout the world. | |
| In late 1995 the 4 CM 1500 appeared for sale as a part of the Hayashi Maserati | |
| collection at Talacrest Ltd, in Egham, Surrey and ended up since August 1996 in | |
| our Cavallino collection. |
| It retaines its original frame # 1525, its original engine which is correctly | |
| stamped as # 1525 and its original Maserati gearbox while it received a number | |
| of usual period modifications. |
