Hey all. Anyone able to point me in the direction of the stang ray’s heritage? I’m wondering if it is a tweaked mazerati. Any insights??
Thanks in advance
Zach

I’m pretty sure it has nothing to do with the Mazerati. If I recall, Brad P’s early 60’s non-top boost AC-30 was getting road worn and he asked Doc to make something to replace it and make it road worthy. So, Doc did his spin on that circuit, with some Z tweaks, and the Mantaray,Stingray/Stangray was born.

Well the Mazerati was a tweaked Mazerati. LOL It started out as a Double Powered Ghia, then BP started using it and wanted some tweaks and that is when V2 Mazerati came about. Then the Sting/Stang Ray came later. So you’re not at all crazy, I can definitely see how you got there.

I just got a mazerati cause I love my ghia so much, I wanted something a bit more clean headroom but with the same vibe. I call mine the ghia 35 senior lol.
