    Why, you might ask, would anyone want a Ferrari without the heart of the machine?
    Good question. The answer will intrigue for sure and will be forthcoming if I find a car. Any tips appreciated. Body must be nice and full interior would be good as well. thanks

    Nobody got it yet.
    Any donor cars out there, or even good bodies with weak or troubled engines at reasonable price?

    someone recently had a thread on whether they should find a new motor or part their car out...Can't remember who though.
    I can't imagine the thread is too many pages deep.

    Ditto, there's a thread active within the last week on "sell without motor or part out?", I think it's right here in the 308 forum.
    I want to see this car built, I'm just wondering what 6 speed trans you're going to package in the 308...?

    pm responded to with contact info

    Speedtek, I have no idea what a body is worth. I would think it depends on condition, interior etc. I am happy to dialogue with any owner about their particular car though.

    Will look for the thread mentioned, thanks

    You are the second person I've heard of recently with the same idea.

    The time is right, might as well spill it.

    It's not like he's turning it into a pasta machine.


    Jesse James already did that. LOL

    They dont appear worth enough presently to consider parting with my other 77 GTB.

    I am also looking for a 308 with a bad motor. I have no idea what a body is worth, any ideas what I would be looking at spending?(the interior needs to be in good shape bit i dont care about the seats).......
    im thinking of a 350 swap or something along those lines....
