1952 OSCA MT4 Roadster

This famous OSCA MT4 is the only remaining original MT4 of three built by the factory in the Ernesto Maserati-designed Mille Miglia body style with the in-board headlights. In August 1952, it was the first OSCA to appear on the California racing circuits, having been ordered by Hollywood screenwriter and amateur race driver Randy McDougall. First driven at the Torrey Pines Races, it went on to compete successfully in all the major West Coast races, including three Pebble Beach Road Races. The following year, the car was taken over by another Californian, Al Coppel, who installed the larger OSCA 2SD 1350 cc engine that is still in the car. A series of owners followed in both the United States and Europe. The car was purchased by the current owner in 2010 who has now restored the car to how it first appeared in California.
