Jim, I'm sure there are differences between the ANSA and Tubi exhausts. I have a 20 year old ANSA on mine and I'm happy with it. I recently had it modified by Classic Coach to allow the rear valance to be mounted. When the pipes were off, they were able to visually inspect the interior and found it free of rust. I think they finished it off nicely.
Stay with your ANSA if it's in good shape. I'm sure you'll find other things to spend some money on! Congratulations, again. Barry |

Congratulations. I had a 308 and drove the snot out of it. Reliable, fun and absolutely beautiful. The experiences that await you are pretty awesome. I let her go when I purchased a new Lotus Esprit, but still have her pic up as my screensaver. Enjoy. |

Guys, I'd like to thank all of the people on the board help me in finding my first ferrari. Today, I bought a 1979 ferrari 308 gts. Red with Black interior. It's a very clean car. I'm having the belts replaced and a few odds and ends done to it, to make it right. Thanks again, Jim |
