John,
Mine are shot too.
I was today at PEP BOYS and found that the brand that they are dealing with makes them for the 308. Not in stock but they can get it. Sorry I can't remember the brand name. I remember it was a dark blue package.
I would check when I get home and update you if you can't find it. |

There are several companies that part out 308s listed in this recent thread:

Any leads? This would be the deck strut itself and the portion that rides in the track guide, not including the cable or the U-joint that attaches to the deck lid.
It's a fiberglass car if that makes a difference.
Long story regarding WHY I need such an obscure part: First the U-joint at the top broke. Very common malady. I ordered a new U-joint but didn't bother installing it, because at the time I was playing with the carbs and R&R'ing the deck lid frequently. That worked fine until the roll-up cable at the base of the strut broke, leaving the strut unattached at both ends. The next time I opened the rear hatch, presto! No more strut. :-P
I understand these are no longer available from mainstream Ferrari suppliers, so it may need to come from someone parting out a carb car. |
