GT4 LM! My favorite other GT4. I remember seeing it race at Sears Point.

Right around the corner from me, I may try to make a play for it. I'm going to inspect when they open it up...literally 15 minutes from my home.

 

Greetings!

I would love to hear your opinion after you take a look at it. External issues seem fixable, but who knows what is going on with the mechanicals.

Not that far from me either, but didn't see the ad in time to go to today's inspection.

Any guess what it could go for?

TC,

I did not get a chance to do the public inspection - work got in the way! LOL!!

I did look at the pictures, the car is rough. I'd guess that if the external issues are rough, the internals are just as bad. Perhaps I'm a dreamer, but at auction, I couldn't see paying more than $10K for it, but who knows if someone with better resources than I would do that?

I was more optimistic when I checked out the serial number - apparently, this car was featured in an article a few years back...purported to be in nice shape, so something happened in the time between the article and today for it to have that much rust on it. My guess is it was neglected and deteriorated accordingly.

If you plan on bidding, I would use caution and avoid "red mist". If you have the time / money to restore it - then I'd say go for it!

Unfortunately, there's not enough money for me to purchase that and do it justice restoration-wise, so I'll probably pass.

Good luck if you decide to go for it!!

 

I'd be suspicious that it might have gone for a little swim, or maybe some wading in the shallow end somewhere near the Sandy coast...

Rgds, Mark

 

1977 208 GT4 at DriverSource in Houston (also on eBay (USA), with BIN $89,500). Looks to be a clean Red/Tan example, largely unmolested.

That's not a rainbow but "Bill's Taxi". A regular fixture at the SoCal track events of the FOC in the last half of the 1970s.

 

Saw this the other day.

Who would have predicted this market getting THIS hot one year ago?

 

This looks like the car that was at Classic Showcase for a long time.

Is blacked-out window trim correct for the 208?

 

you are right, 13550, from classic showcase. sold last year I think for $50-$55k something like that?
good looking car!

 

Blacked out trim was never offered on any GT4 except for the metal bumper parts on some cars.
Also for the grill's on this car; these should be aluminum as opposed to the 308 where they should be black. The horse in the front grille must leave as well...
Still looks like a nice car though.

 

+strange combination (beige interior + blue -black trunk carpet)Should not be trunk carpet Than - beige? as interior?

 

The 208's had black instrument clusters and silver grills

 

Here is the latest on eBay!

Ferrari 308 2 Door | eBay

 

I feel like this car was on here around the time it was awarded at the CC.

 

As relates to final selling price.....very nice looking car,
Jack

 

Same car was listed by the same seller back in June 2015. Bidding reached $80K, with a $125K Buy-it-Now price. Don't recall if it "sold", or if the $80K price failed to meet reserve price.

 

Does anyone know if any 308 GT4s were auctioned during the Monterey weekend?

 

Ferrari 308 2 Door | eBay

This looks like it sold now. Hopefully new owner is on Fchat....

 

Dont understand how someone can neglect a car to this extent but here is another Beverley Hills Car Club beauty. Pity they dont know the difference between a 208 and 308 but heck whats a liter of displacement between friends?
