If your talking about the car behind the 308 on the assembly line, it's a 512BB

 

nope...

Most of readers probably think first in mornig "FERRARI!" and then wake up, same thing with this picture, you only see FERRARI's in this picture. question is: what else is in this picture?

 

OK, Your talking about the Tractor cabs hanging the foreground! Are those Lambo?

 

Bingo!

I have no idea what brand they are, mayby use of Google image will awnser this. More interesting question is; why?

If I have to ques: Ferrari did make some "subcontracting" for Fiat, who know?

Of course we are talkin Scaglietti factory here.

 

Exact model is Fiat 880-980 serrie, from year 1985 there are glass windows all the way down, that is why there is cross metal bar in door and round side window rear.

Great photos! Thank you, Marcel.
(My 1986 #60377 was built in Oct. 1985 and could be here...)

I love this thread. It reminds me of a time Ferrari really had such a mystique to the brand and the cars. With their production number so high now, more competitors in the space and the addition of social media, seeing one isn't what it once was. I vividly remember making my parents in the 80's turn around and go back if we ever saw one in a parking lot so I could just see it and maybe if I was lucky had a camera and could snag a photo of it to show my friends. I'm sure many of you know what I'm going on about, its really hard to explain it if you don't "get it". But staring at these photos brings it back.

 

Fantastic pictures. Thank you for posting.

 

wow !!! so cool you can not even compare anything new from Ferrari today with the likes of the ones in the pictures !! Thats back when FERRARI was FERRARI Thank you for this !!

 

Correct, as opposed to now a money grabbing, publicly listed company.

 

Cool photos here also:

Just stumbled onto this thread ,only from 13 years ago..

Brilliant Marcel thank you!

They all go straight onto the Sub Zero board.

 

Correction they go straight to the Sub Zero Fridge Bar

 

The Ferrari Club Spain has a few interesting period pictures of the 328 assembly on its Facebook page. Sorry if they are a repost, but as for myself, can't remember having seen these before, it's a "first" as far as I am concerned..

The OP of these picture was in facebook group "FERRARI 308/328 GTB/GTS DINO GT4" Photo from Ferrari factory and Scaglietti, with comment :

"Here a few photos of my factory visit in 1980's. VERY different from a factory visit today - they just opened the doors and you could wander around taking pictures (with a device called a camera) of anything you wanted. No health & safety or security to bother about."

AND

"I can't remember the exact date but I think it was 85 because I recall that the 328 was brand new and (they said) none had been delivered to customers."

 

Here's a picture from my visit to the factory in ~April 1985, this may have been an early 328 in camo on road testing...

What a great photo.
I haven't seen many camouflaged photos of 328's during testing.
Very cool !!
