I am not sure where to begin on that car.....better yet I prefer to forget I ever saw it; what a disgrace.

I liked the twin CB antennas mounted on the lid too.

Vince,

Other way around. 78-79 had the 5 long vents. 80-95 and the Euro cars did not have the extra vents.
The decklid is correct

The engine cover on that 78, 308 was from an injected 308. Had the extra 5 long vents!!

Did you hear that Alice had a testarossa but the looks of the shelby 350 was nicer. He did say the testarossa was faster.Wouldn't most consider the testa a work of art? Not sure what drugs he's been taking.

I hope who ever bought it is parting it out as we speak.

Did you guys see the disco ball hanging from the roof? Groovy!

Rob, you're right, I think there should be more women on the floor. It would probably be to the seller�s advantage.

When the Barrett Staff guy closed the engine cover, he pushed on the rear center to latch it! I thought they were supposed to be experts...

What about those air cleaners. I don't remember seening those on an original '78.

Alan and the other announcers were hilarious... "I hear scratching, it must be Enzo in his grave."

Anyone check out the hot Texas bid runner. How can you not raise your bid again with her in your face. Damn I love Texas. Oh, and Ferraris too.

I was embarrased to be associated with the name. Oh my God that thing was ugly. As if the Texas pinstriping and Bandit-TransAm spoiler were not bad enough, the interior was from Lost In Space. Did you notice that the top was stowed upside-down and backwards? Someone at Barrett should have helped (and blown it up)!

Yea- that was a real joke. Even the hosts of the show were making a few jokes about it- engine compartment wasn't even cleaned, Enzo wouldn't be impressed if he was still around, the gold plated horse on the back would look good on a chain.

Great car to go to the disco in 25 years ago.
Still went for 27K so someone liked it.

Tonight must be when they bring out the nice Ferrari.

It was modified by the guy that created the batmobile i think.
