SPECIFICATIONS

Brief History:
Although the 6C/34 was designed as a monoposto, Maserati built a sports version for Varzi for use in the Mille Miglia of 1935.  Originally destined for Subalpina the 6C/34 (no 3026) was placed in a two-seater body with the exterior appearance of the 4CS.  Following the event it was converted back to a single-seater.
