    I got something that I hadn't even realized until rummaging around in a box with the original radio. I have the original radio blanking plate.

    Very nice car. Couple things I didn't see. Spark plug tool in toolkit and the small key that locks the pouch behind the passenger seat.

    Okay, this is good stuff.

    So, I know one spark plug goes in the round plastic cup, what's the second one for?

    in my tool bag is a pouch for the two plugs, I've never seen them in the plastic cup. I have a extra bulb in the cup laying down and no judge has told me that a plug was to be there? and the two plugs are in boxes!

    Hi Guys,

    Unbelievable 308 Tony,what a find!!!!

    If you check the US 308 QV parts manual(I have a 1983 Edition) the round plastic holder should actually contain a spare headlight globe! The spare sparkplugs are shown as boxed and contained in the toolkit along with the jack etc.That bag even has a little pockets for the boxed plugs.

    My 1984 Ozzie delivered 308 QV gts is set up like this and the toolkit is 100%original and untouched!

    Hope this helps,

    Cheers

    Pete

    you know just becuase you have everything they'll find something else,I got my point sheet and I got deducted a point becuase the rubber on drivers door had a worn gouge the door close's,another point for the finish in the 308 emblem,and how about another one for(black fade on right mirror base,and rough finish on rear anti-sway bars and shocks) I don't think just becuase everything in check is going to get you there,good luck....I have almost 58k miles and I'm going to continue putting the miles on and I'm going to fix these items to becuase I want 1st place

    Thanks.

    I'm really not in it for the points or the judging.

    I have won a number of first place trophies over the years with other cars and have really had enough of it.

    If I go to Cavallino in January I just want to know that the car is complete.

    I don't see the spare tire carring bag. Do you have it too? It is made out of the same stuff the top cover is. It sits inside the spare wheel up front

    Washer tank mounting...just to make sure I have this right, I have been searching for pics here for about 2 weeks. I have seen the opening (lid) to the washer tank both toward the front of the car and toward the driver...which is factory correct please?

    I see the photo you have shows it forward toward the front of the car...

    Thanks,
