New 328 owner

Hello,

Just purchased my first Ferrari, was Porsche 911 owner for years, completely different cars.
I bought it Barrett-Jackson Mohegan, nice car needs a little TLC ect. The main problem no tool pouch, jack pouch or manuals. They where not listed on the sheet but, I spoke with the consignor after the purchase, he said they sent the items with the car. Barret-Jackson says they don't have them they where not listed. I have had many cordial calls with both parties, no results. The consignor Exotic Classics out of Long island has given a great effort trying to help me with BJ and locating the items, no results.

What is the best source to obtain these items...

What is the best source for front carpets...

Also source for heat control knobs they are a little worn.

For the Porsche it was Pelican parts, is there a Ferrrari go to source...

Thanks,
Jay

Congratulations on your purchase and welcome to F-chat. Sorry to hear about the issues you are having with the manual, tool wrap and jack pouch. The classified section of F-chat is good place to start as well as Ebay. Others to name a few are: Trutlands.com, ricambiamerica.com, reoriginals.com, and ferrparts.com. Help is also available from F-chat members who are always willing to help and share information. Post pictures when you can.

 

Thanks the info, greatly appreciated.

 

Jay, what year is your car? Can you post some pictures?

 

I have an extra complete set of manuals and leather pouch for 328. What year is your car?

 

Gator,
It is a late model 1988 ABS. I hope that is a match.

Jay,

My set is for a 1986. You could check with Barry (Green308GTSi). He may have an owners manual for a 1988.

Enjoy it. They are great cars.

 

Nice car. The things you are missing tool pouch, jack, pouch or manuals are not cheap. I would keep after them. When did you get the car? Were you there in person or a internet bidder? If you like to go to car auctions Phoenix in January to me is the best. 7 auctions the same week. Been going for years.

 

Nice car, you will love it! I personally order most of my parts from Superformance UK with great price and shipping cost and time.

 

Welcome and congrats Jay!

You know why there are plenty of these items for sale?

Barry aka Green308GTSi might still have the tool and jack kits as well as the manual with pouch. The warranty book is something irreplaceable IMHO, especially for 328s.

 

Jay:

Congratulations on your smart purchase and welcome to the club!

I have an original, unmolested late 1988 328, so if you need photos on how things should look, or if you have any questions, please send me a PM.

Good luck,

I could use an 1986 set. Please pm me if you interested in selling.

 

Thanks Guys appreciate the input and support

 

Congrats, beautiful car. Enjoy in good health!

Cheers!

Late 1988 does not have ABS although they have the convex wheels and other accoutrements that ABS cars have. No 1988 model year US-spec 328 had ABS.

Only 1989 model year US-spec cars have ABS.

P.S. - your car looks exactly like mine, you have great taste!

 

Congratulations. Drive and enjoy your 328! Jon

 

Jeff328 Thanks for the input, it was listed on the sheet with ABS and I found this article. Is there a sure fire way, I can determine it my self.

Welcome and congratulations, Jay! I believe I watched your car cross the block on TV. It's beautiful. Here's to much future enjoyment!

I believe ABS was an option on late-1988 (aka 1988 1/2) and standard on 1989.

 

After futher reach I have read that if the brake fluid reservoir is aligned in the center of the spare tire shroud it is an ABS car, if towards the passenger side non ABS. Mine is located toward the passenger side, non ABS. Good info Jeff thanks. Does it make a value difference either way....
