    Driver in San Jose for $39.5K . I actually ran into this owner a couple of years ago at the PEP BOYS in Sunnyvale - member on here. The car was in an accident and recently rebuilt. He was driving it around in primer and all - great guy and he was friends with my step dad in the FCA. It looks like the smog pump is still on the car. Described they improved the rear frame, which I thought was already a good bit of engineering. It would be interesting to see what they've done.

    well if it was recently in a accident that explains why they improved on the rear frame I would say. The craigs ad says clean title though

    I have to correct myself - The owner of the car I described meeting reached out and confirmed this is not his car - he's still driving his!!! Hang on to your GT4's y'all!!!! I don't personally know this car for sale.

    Sorry guys - I've been going BRZO crazy lately - its an app that allows you to create specific craigslist car advert searches.... So I've been following the market pretty closely.

    https://nashville.craigslist.org/ctd/d/1976-ferrari-308-dino-gt4-308/6302992238.html

    Nice black '76 in Nashville area - Black on saddle / tan. $69k - the color combo works well. It looks pretty clean! I didn't see many interior shots or engine pics. But for those looking for a finer example - it seems like a good option.

    Prices seem to be all over the board lately.....

    This one (09982) is interesting. It presents well in the few photos, but the same car was listed on Craigslist in January ($49.5K) with Superformance wheels and 48K on the odometer. In March it was on eBay with BBS wheels and 48K miles. Now in October it has 43K miles and Dino 246 Campagnolo wheels. I like the Dino badging on the nose and steering wheel, and it wouldn't take much to replace the cavallino on the Campagnolos. The advert says same owners for 17 years, so maybe they can explain what's going on.

    It’s close to my house if anyone wants a peak

    Frankly, I would go unconventional ...

    NSX swap? :)
    Pantera guts? :)
    Hybrid? :)
    Twin turbo 996 guts? :)

    I am getting excited

    Gauges, interior, a/c, some body panels etc etc all gone ... you would have to go race car because the cost of trying to get it back to some semblance of stock would be well over $100K and even then you would never find all the parts.

    I called the guy ... he says body has rust with plenty of bondo ... no title ... no bumpers ... it's a Euro 208 car although at this point you can't tell the difference.

    No title needed in CT, so that's not abnormal. The rest of it is screaming for a LS...

    I think you have to park the front of an LS in the back seat ... the only time I have seen that done that's what the guy did. Used a porsche tranny I believe, or maybe it was from an Audi, I don't recall. Anyway you have to position the driveshafts in line with the hubs plus minus and I don't think there is enough room between the firewall and the wheel centerline to do it without intruding into the cabin. I know if you want to do the same thing with a 308 motor turned, you have to lengthen the chassis, and that's a pretty short motor.

    I also think this might be some kind of scam as the seller could not tell me the VIN. I would not be sending any cashier's checks, that's for sure.

    Where did he say he was located?
    I'm close by if he is in fact in lower CT

    Bridgeport maybe? Not sure. Fast talker, tried to tell me regular 308 rocker panels would fit the car.

    Yikes. Without sounding uppity. I refuse to go into Bridgeport for anything. Too many stories about armed robbery and shootings.
