Many are using oil that is not conductive to cold shifting. Victorian era lubricants. As someone said. The transmission cross-section I saw...
I was curious too and did a deep dive some years ago. I found transmission cut-away diagrams for the 308 and it showed part of the linkage went...
That is a helpful article. Thanks! My Qv has single stage Glasuit paint, as does your Lancia, and I consider "feeding" the paint the most...
It's been awhile, but this looks like what's on my '83 Qv. A cut-out for a 5.25" speaker, surrounded by a rain shield, with a trapezoidal speaker...
I used the same Pioneer TS-168 speakers in another car during the mid-80's and by top-mounting, as shown in post #1 above, it's possible to use a...
If it has been sitting a few years flushing the coolant would be an expectation rather than a suggestion.
My '83 Qv had factory installed speakers with a rain shield and wiring, then a dealer installed radio, as Anthony Rapuano noted (above). The 5.25"...
My ’83 Qv, sold on Nov. 19, 1983 in California, came with 16” wheels and the original sales receipt doesn’t mention them as an option versus the...
The factory carpets on my QV (post #5) came with Velcro sewn on the back as noted in post #8. Wilton wool looks nice, and I’m glad to have the...
I got one with my 1983 308 GTS Qv. I've now seen two, so they appear to be pretty uncommon.
Good timing. Here’s a picture of factory original 308Qv carpet floor mats I just pulled to measure and underneath them is a vinyl floor mat, then...
Since on the black and not the tan leather I would speculate a re-dye (might contain a lacquer), though hard to tell from the picture. I'd...
Currently, purchasing from Leatherique directly seems to be the lowest price. I would recommend the 16oz special to start (I used up my 8oz the...
Pictures of the car on another thread suggest it was neglected for a long time, like many have been. Sometimes it takes of number of trips to get...
I see my error. Only Lexol on the leather. I have used other Zymol products and they have worked well.
My seats have only been treated with Lexol since new, almost forty years now, and never dyed. They look great, most would say near new, but I...
“Unknown history and service history”? That’s kind of the norm, given the number of vehicles without a complete service history. The quality of...
You’re right on all points. What’s interesting, to me, is the thought behind some of the decisions and how these cars came about. The Dino 206/246...
Yes, how the book(s) would be laid out is really a good question. Perhaps placing 2+2’s, like the 308 GT4 & Mondial, in one book is the way to go....
I really like the idea of a 308 book, though I would consider making the Bertone Dino 308 GT4 and variants as one book and the Pininfarina Ferrari...
