    I have a 1978 Euro spec dry sump 308 GTB for sale. Approximately 66,XXX Km. I have owned this car for the past 3 years and enjoyed it, but with a 2 year old, I cannot seem to find the time to drive this car enough.

    I purchased this car (on FerrariChat) from a seller with a small collection in Germany. He purchased it after it had been "gently" refurbished, including repainting in the (believed) original Sera Blu paint (2013-ish). He also commissioned a historical history report that documents ownership since new which I will include with this purchase. I have a few service records prior to my ownership. During my ownership, just the usual maintainence was performed. Belts, fluids, spark plugs were just replaced and the headlight electrical connections were repaired. I am happy to put interested parties in touch with my mechanic if desired. I welcome a PPI at the buyer's expense.

    Please feel free to respond with questions or to discuss further. Please respond via FerrariChat initially. Asking $155k.

    Thanks for looking.

    The car is located in Denver, Colorado.

    Absolutely beautiful car! Reminds me of the '77 #21039 that I owned for six years. A picture of the engine would be a good idea. A fair price in my opinion.

    Beautiful! Love the color combo. I have a black one and have always wondered how many other dry sumps are in the US. Can't be too terribly many I wouldn't think. I think the price is reasonable given the rarity.

    What's funny is that I also have a blue dry sump Euro car (also in Denver, coincidentally). So maybe not as rare as we all would like to think...

    I joke, I joke. I do think there are relatively few here and they are the best of the breed in many ways.

    Thanks @amsu I bet this'll be hard to part with (I have a 1980 dry sump... extremely unique and fun cars)
    What chassis number is this one? Does it have the correct Euro space saver spare up front? Paul

    I'm in the south Denver metro area. Cool carb car! My previous QV had similar fog lights :). My current Mondial does not (LOL).

    I'd be happy to offer my assistance to help or be a 2nd pair of eyes for an out-of-town buyer if the car is located in the south metro area.
