One of the most interesting Maseratis ever constructed, the sole surviving Tipo 151 (chassis 006), will compete in this year’s Le Mans Legends event on Saturday June 22, 2013. This annual support race at the Le Mans 24 Hours is the jewel in the crown of the historic motorsport calendar, and this year marks the Maserati’s return to Le Circuit de la Sarthe after an absence of five decades. In mid-September, the car is also scheduled to compete at the Goodwood Revival.
The Maserati’s engine and transmission have been prepared by Virkler & Bartlett LLC of Chatham, Virginia. V&B is also responsible for constructing the car’s clutch, exhaust and electrical systems as well as the starter motor and oil tank.
