More proof 308s are going up

Every once in a while you see one with these strange wheels.... they're like 14" TRXs....

 

Why is it lacking the single slot? Someone filled it in and put the wrong muffler on it rather than spend the money for the right one.

 

Hey those are strange wheels no??

 

WOW, I can hear those braided hose SCREAMING out.....C H A N G E M E!!!!!!

jIM

 

They are TRX's, metric tires on this gem

 

I noticed that it says TRX on the tires.... The rims look smaller though don't they?? Maybe not oh well....

 

they say 390 so they're right for an 81 anyway.

 

I like the silver gas tank, sender and wiring, lol, they got a little carried away on the "freshen up".

 

...good to see the cars climbing

First off, Euro market. As applicable in the US as Euro real estate prices. Secondly, euro glass car...very unique market and IMHO not applicable to the rest of the 308 market. We're talking 700 or so glass cars versus 10,000 "other" 308s. Finally, sellers can ask whatever they want. That's not the market. The selling price is the market. Let's talk when this little beauty sells.

I still see QVs on the market that take months and months to sell at the mid thirties.

 

Hello Blaine, your correct about the fiberglass market. The steel 308carb/2v or qv have no bearing on the price of a euro fiberlass dry sump gtb. Also you shouldn't compare a qv to the euro glass car, the qv is a shaddow of the early beast.

 

Also about that car in europe, someone has tried to restore or repair that thing! All they have done is destroy another early rare ferrari. It needs about 150k to bring it back.

 

Its funny to hear beast and 308 in the same sentence.

 

quarter in 14.5 and 154 mph top end in 1976! It has taken 30 years for the rest to catch up. They still haven't figured out the chassis yet.

 

10 seconds and 200mph is a beast.

 

No Paul, that's an f-40 and 500k. the glass car is a bargin!

 

actually a new corvette for the price of a 348 will eat an F40, thats too bad....and they're made of fibreglass too!

 

yeah but what happens when the vet starts to drop screws from under the dash? And it (the vet) may eat a usa spec f-40 but not the real deal in europe. A non cat euro f-40 besides being 25 year old tech will spank that plastic cavalier all over the track.

 

true but being spanked on the street is being spanked but its worse if you get spanked by a vette with some goof behind the wheel on his cell phone.

I have a screwdriver, I can put the screws back, lol.

 

I hear and read about this zo6 rubbish all the time. Yes for the money it looks like a good deal but a big but, do you want hamburger or a steak? Lets take an example from the past or a lesson. In 78 for 18 k you bought a new vet silver anniversary or the pace car, with the window sticker and all. Or a 275 four cam for 18k for an old out of style car that nobody want except the true collector with vision. Thirty years have past and I know both these people and they still have the cars. The vet guy still has his 78 and keeps a paper bag for his head when he drives it around just like the unknown comic from the gong show. The 275 guy? no further comparison needed. We should learn from this parable, I have.

 

what if I bought the last 67 stinkray for 6K and then restored it in my garage, then sold it for $600K on the BJ auction? Thats a good investment and its a vette. You didnt learn, you just bought a base model firechicken with a fancy 10 foot long hood.
