    what is the original factory assembly of documents that should reside in the shedoni wallet?
    is it customarily stored behind the passenger seat in the lockable pouch?

    FerrariLiterature.com website would be the best, outside of a random for sale ad that does have them all.

    Value is up to Safety Deposit box at the bank levels, but I keep mine with the title in the files.
    Tool rolls, jack are boxed up as well.

    Recap:
    Year specific OM
    Dealer network manual
    Lubricant Chart
    Radio info if applicable.

    Funny you should mention, during the unrest downtown last Friday, five cars were stripped of wheels here behind the fence...

    The one NEXT to my Ferrari the RH block fell as they jacked the LH side, the floor jack jumped and RIPPED the drivers door halfway up the door!
    Plastic doo dads and rocker moldings flew everywhere...
    They finished stealing the wheels and were gone.

    When I raised my cover, to see...not a scratch.
    Our wheels only fit VOLVOs of course, they MUST have known!!!

    It looked like the Jolly Green Giant used his beer can opener on a Nissan, with paper tags

    For a 328:
    - owner's manual
    - warranty card
    - dealer network directory.
    There was no oil chart included, although many got one later.

    There were three different editions of the documents, the first one with gray covers, then a middle production one which was yellow, then the very late one for the MY '89 models, also yellow, but which Owner's Manual (print ref 535/88) finally had the updated settings for the different suspension of the 88 1/2 and 89 models, meaning the 88 1/2 were delivered with an owner's manual which didn't have the correct suspensions settings...

    Depending on the year and month production of your car, we could pinpoint the correct edition.

    As said by other posters, you would not put these documents in the car...certainly not the warranty card.
    Almost all 328's received a tan leather pouch, except a fair number of M.Y '89 which had the same dark burgundy pouch as the 288 GTO had received five years earlier.

    Well, contrary to the general opinion, I keep all that paperwork in the seat pouch on my '89 328...as originally supplied and where it's been since the car was new (per the original owner). It's not going to get "damaged" sitting in the seat pouch and if the car's stolen, I don't care if that stuff went with it. Nobody steals Ferrari's anyway, there's no money to be made... ;)

    FWIW, I also keep the original tools in the car as originally supplied. Again, seems to me to be the best place for them. In the case of the tools/the manual - IMO, keeping it in the car means you never find yourself saying, "Where the heck did I put that stuff?" :)

    A trunk leak in 22127 destroyed a LOT of original documents.

    Saved many by copying but the book were toast.
    Expensive rainstorm!!

    I've kept the books/tools in every non-Fcar I've ever owned.

    Maddening when you buy one when the PO didn't do the same. And mystifying.
