Wow. Hat's off to you for taking this on. Someone should resurrect this car, but I don't think I'd have the gumption to tackle it. Glad it is...
Thank you both very much. Evidently when they went to electronic ignition, the advance mechanism changed to electronically regulated. I appreciate...
In the course of doing a major service on this car and getting it back on the road, I noted that there is no advance mechanism inside the...
Well, I ordered it yesterday, we'll see how it does. The AC supplier said that m ost run CCW. The one I ordered does run CW, because it's...
My understanding is that standard auto AC compressors run CCW, but the one on the 308 is set up to run CW? Isn't that true? We are in the process...
I have the Vredestein Sprint Classic on a different car, a '64 E-type Jaguar. They are great tires- nice grip, not noisy, very predictable...
I wanted a Euro QV berlinetta. Preferably in red metallic, but that is a real unicorn. I ended up buying a USA QV berlinetta. We knew the car...
Thank you to all who contributed on this thread. My '85 308GTB has a Blaupunkt with the wired remote on the stalk. Most likely we are going to...
As a new 308 owner, I'll be curious to see how it shifts when cold. My first Ferrari was a Mondail t, years ago, and despite having an entirely...
Is there another rectangular driving lamp that is the same size as the ones that came in the Euro cars, the ones that had the flash-to-pass lamps...
Does anyone know what the original radio/audio unit would have been in a 1985 USA QV berlinetta? I am pretty certain I am taking mine out...
Yes, we'll clean the old grease out of the winders, and fit the window accelerators, as long as we're in there. And replace the speakers. I can't...
That is part of what I wish to add, if I can.
Does anyone have a parts list and information about retrofitting the front driving lights to a USA-spec '85 QV berlinetta? I believe these were...
Thanks for posting this. We are about to do the same thing- the window winders are not working right, and I thought we would do the speakers at...
Very well done, but not as good as the book. Then again, some of the descriptions and plot elements in the book are pretty difficult to take....
The shocks on my Mondial t cab are leaking; not all, but some. I think these are Bilsteins that were a Ferrari-only item and specific to this car....
...I can't tell you what to do here, but I can make one suggestion, as someone who's been through similar headaches: the faster you want to fix...
classic Mini-Cooper (have one and love it) Ferrari 275GTS (loved it since it came out in 1964) GT40 Mark I (will love it as soon as it's...
...the moped looks fine to me....
