Slight resemblance.

Did the inspiration for the Mk.4 coupe come from this Maserati?

C'mon John, more info please. Looks like an A6GCS with a Kammback. Gotta be from the mid 50's even tho Kammbacks didn't become mainstream till the 60's. Back seems a bit like the GSM Delta and they predated Bollies. Took a long look at my pics of Mk4 coupe body n would suggested Campbell just ran a line up to where he wanted it at the windscreen and then glassed in a roof - he was able to conceptualise an evolution of car designs so why could he not have thought up the Mk 4 roof?

It's the 1964 Tipo 151/3 Le Mans car. It was at the Goodwood Revival this year. I'll post a couple of photos.
