Concorso Italiano, August 13th 2010.
Amid a stunning collection of beautifully maintained and restored Maseratis at Concorso Italiano, two exceptional Maserati Boras presented by Emile’s Sports Car Performance (Santa Cruz, CA) took First and Second place, in the Bora class of this year’s Maserati Days competition. As a Bora aficionado, Emile restored his’75 U.S. spec Bora back to the original appearance envisioned by the car’s designer, Giorgetto Giugaro. The conversion was flawless and the car took second next to his ’73 Bora. Emile documented the bumper conversion which will appear in an upcoming issue Maserati Club International magazine, Viale Ciro Menotti.
