AM117/US*916* is believed to have been a long-term Californian
resident prior to its documented stewardship from the early
1990s-onward with its previous Morgan Hill, CA caretaker. The Bora
left the Golden State in 2017 when it was acquired by J. Napoli of
Stuart, Florida. Prior to purchase, the Maserati had been the
recipient of a cosmetic restoration, with further extensive work
commissioned by Napoli in 2017-18. Finding a new home in 2019, the
Bora's 4.9-liter V8 was the subject of thorough rebuild from the
crank up. Attention to mechanical systems was extremely
comprehensive and complete, with invoices meticulously detailing
the $48,500 invested with Specialty Car Solutions from 2019-2020.
Most recently, Maserati would receive a Spring 2022 inspection,
scheduled service, and extensive detailing. All hydraulics,
mechanical and electrical systems appear to be in proper working
order, including the clock and recently restored correct Becker
Europa II radio
