Configuration
One of 2,185 Examples Produced from 1976-80
A Remarkably Original California Blue Plate Car
2017 "30k Major Timing Belt Service" & Detailing Performed
Turn-Key Ready for Driven Enjoyment!
The Ferrari 308 has become one of the most sought after examples in
today's market with the early carbureted GTB examples leading the
charge. The greatest appeal is the attractive looks of the GTB
Coupe paired to a lively driving experience. This highly original
lifelong California "blue plate" Ferrari hails from northern
coastal region of the state. We believe the car retains large
portions of its original paint and unquestionably original tan
leather upholstery, which shows nicely with a proper patina. All
original glass remains in place (including the California emissions
windshield decal), as well as the very rare Blaupunkt Bamberg
Stereo Electronic.
Displaying 55,700 miles, the engine revs effortlessly, with a sharp
tune and with great engine compression on each cylinder. All of the
electric components are working properly including the clock! A
2017 complete 30k Major Service and inspection was performed by
DriverSource, Houston TX by highly knowledgeable and experienced
service specialists. This included all required belts, tensioners,
gaskets, seals, filters and fluids, parts were supplied by Ferrari
of Houston, along with a new battery, and correct Michelin XWX
tires. The factory EGR equipment remains affixed, while the smog
pump was removed and discarded in years past. Importantly the 308
retains its original PininFarina body # stamped front and rear
bonnets which are stamped "824".
For those in search of an honest and original carbureted 308 GTB to
drive and enjoy, we highly recommend this example - especially for
those seeking the uncommon non-red Ferrari. 26003 is accompanied by
period sheep skin seat covers, matching spare assembly and original
owner's manual.
