Just got some photos from the FCA Annual Meet In June. My verde medio 308 on the field & the hardware it earned, two Premio di Platino, one for Preservation and the other for 95+ points in the class, plus a Coppa Bella Macchina Award.

I recognize your car from a pic I collected when I was starting looking into buying some kind of older Ferrari. The color and the lines really struck me. Plus the curly-haired blond kid peering out over the door made me laugh! Unfortunately, I wasn't able to find a green one for sale myself, so I ended up going with the classic red and tan. (See subsequent post) Cheers, Vin Image Unavailable, Please Login
Let me take a moment here to introduce my friend Ruby. She's an 85 QV, and presumably a good Mormon girl, having spend some 28 years of her existence in the Salt Lake City region, most of that time in stewardship of a older lady. At the moment, she is enjoying the cool, dense sea-level air of California -- quite possibly for the first time ever -- though I intend to bring her to my house in Florida at some point in the next year. (Yeah, I sense a road trip coming on...) Anyway, this pic was taken in front of some abandoned WWII army barracks near where I live outside of Monterey. Great photo background for car pics, although the late-afternoon sunlight I was racing to capture disappeared right behind a fog-bank just as I was getting into position. Welcome to "June Gloom" on the California coast, I guess. At any rate, I am a sucker for a good profile, and the 308's have such an achingly pretty silhouette. I don't even think its *legal* to make a car look that good from the side anymore. Pedestrian-impact safety safety standards alone make that next to impossible. This old girl looks like she'd chop you off at the shins; she's a stiletto on wheels! Image Unavailable, Please Login
Maybe for Halloween this year, Mr. Magnum with show up; fake bushy mustache, too-short shorts, Hawaiian shirt, the whole deal. I have been asked by multiple people to do that, and may yet bow to popular demand for a photo shoot. Problem is, I look a little more like the sidekick that owned the bar. (Rick, I think it was?)
Did you have to climb in/out through the window? The fender of that trailer looks high enough to impede the door of a 308 from opening. I got trapped inside my own lowered 55 Buick that way once. You can imagine the words that came out of my mouth after I drove it onto the trailer, shut her down... and tried to open the door. Clang! I managed to get out "Dukes of Hazard Style" but the resulting door-ding took some work to buff out.
The transporter was very experienced with this, claimed to have moved 50+ 308s, as I supervised he opened the door about 2-3" from the trailer fender and wiggled out. He said "I'm fortunate enough to be thin!", I'd say so.
