The Maserati 420M/58 Eldorado was a single-seater manufactured by Maserati in 1958. It was a one-off race car purpose-built for the second edition of the 500 Miles of Monza. It was the first single-seater in Europe to be sponsored by a brand not attached to an automobile industry. The internal Maserati classification was the Tipo 4, behind the 250F variants, and also referred to as the 420/M/58 for 4.2-litre displacement, Monoposto or a single-seater in Italian and 1958 year, or simply as the "Eldorado".
In 2020, Maserati paid homage to Sir Stirling Moss, who died on 12 April 2020 at the age of 90, by decorating a prototype of the Maserati MC20 with the 'Stirling Moss' script from the "Eldorado" single seater.
Currently the Maserati "Eldorado", with bodywork and livery restored to its 1958 specification, is part of the Umberto Panini's Maserati collection in Modena.
