On 79 308 GTS the sticker is located in the center of the superstructure, frame, of the engine cover,bonnet. Check your owners manual under general specifications

Ben -- I got an error message back that you don't have enough room on your end. Open up 2+ MB of free space (and give me a shout), and I'll try resending.

Ben -- the "a" in the VIN eighth digit indicates your 1981 308GTSi is a US version. I just emailed Section 1 of the corresponding OM to the email address in your profile (it's about 2MB so I hope you have the room for it on your end).

Ben -- register on the www.owners.ferrari.com site. It takes a couple of days for them to get back to you, but they have the OMs on-line.

If you give me the year/version/model F, I'll see if I can email the .pdf of the corresponding Section 1 to you.

Ben -- Your best reference IMO would be the OM for your year/model/version F -- in Section 1 ("identification data").

It depends on the model and when it was produced and what type of paint was then used. I would check the photos and/or diagrams in a service manual on your car to be sure or you can call Beau pirkle at 770.939.6982. He is a Ferrari paint/body man extraodinare and will know the proper location.

The paint label goes on the underside of the decklid over the storage compartment. Ive seen them on the right half of the lid almost at the rear lip. The GVW label would be on the jamb near the lid release.
