I thought this was the GT4 market thread…..:rolleyes:
He is referring to some things that have been on the car for the past 27 years, which apparently are incorrect according to someone. But he doesn't state what those somethings are. And if he is referencing an earlier post made by someone else, I can't find it. Not really important, in the end, as this is a GT4 thread and everyone knows "those are the wrong ones"
Result from Gooding & Co from Monterey last weekend - $92K (i think including fees). Nice car, early euro, looks clean and original and accurate, less the stereo (it was all I could see. Good value, I thought 100 - 130 was a high estimate. I would only give those numbers to a fresh Al Lerardi level car, especially in a slower market. None the less, this sale is good for us. https://www.goodingco.com/lot/1974-ferrari-dino-308-gt4/
Looks like a nice car and sold correctly. I am fortunate to own a 1975 series 1 euro rear seat delete car restored by Mr. Lerardi. His cars are damn near perfect, I've been offered 150k but it's not for sale. Have now won 5 platino awards from FCA. I see Robert {see above} shared his two GT4"s with us. I believe he also has a Al Lerardi car, the 1974 car if I'm not mistaken.
Good question my friend. I got the same question from my friend and mechanic Erik Sander with GTO Engineering yesterday. He has a 75 GT4 that he finally got back on the road and was looking for some obscure parts for his car. The last I heard he was still in the Naples area, no idea doing what though. He should get back into the GT4 restoration business. I would think he would be very busy with all the new interest and appreciation for the GT4. See you out there Robert, take care.
This one has been on P-Car Market for a few days. It seems to be a decent car with very little not "correct" about it. It's interesting the difference between BAT and other car auction sites. On BAT, this car would have at least half a dozen bids by now and a ton of comments. Yet on P-Car Market, it has one bid and six comments—and half of those are my comments! https://www.pcarmarket.com/auction/1975-ferrari-dino-308-gt4/
@Stephen B. @robertgarven I was watching this documentary on the Cannonball Run Countach. The owner credited Al for doing the perfect restoration. This car made history, entering the Library of Congress via the National Historic Vehicle Register and was featured on the National Mall in Washington DC. GT4's are a labor of love. I would imagine nearly seven figure cars are more profitable. Image Unavailable, Please Login
Good day Christopher, Just a FYI, the seller is listed as West Coast Classics and their website shows an asking price of $75.5K USD : https://www.thewestcoastclassics.com/1975-ferrari-308-dino-gt4-v8-5-spd-coupe-c-1938.htm Cheers, Sam
It only reached $39k on PCarMarket, definitely not the right venue for that car. I think if he had put it on BAT it would have reached around $65k. He's asking $75k for it on the "deal tank" thing, but I think that's a bit high in this softening market. I think $65k is about right. https://www.pcarmarket.com/auction/dealtank-1975-ferrari-dino-308-gt4/
Not sure if these are current: https://ads.ferrarichat.com/buy/dino-308-gt4/f106aladgm14864om https://ads.ferrarichat.com/buy/dino-308-gt4/11960
I've known about this one... I think it's "for sale" https://www.musclecarjrinc.com/details/used-1976-ferrari-dino-308gt4/103836038
US bumpers and oversized wheels really make these look like a totally different vehicle from the factory rest-of-world original.
I remember this one from years ago. still looks the same. modern driver seat inside too I believe. from a Mazda or something.
I can tell you that one is some sort of scam, or not real, or something. When I started seriously looking for a 308 GT4 over three years ago, that was one of the first ones I found. I couldn't get any straight answers from the seller, no additional pics, and boasting it was "all original". It's been on several different sites over the years too. Definitely something fishy going on with that one.
I got real answers, but I don't think he wants to sell. I think that whole operation is his collection in a dealer loophole. He buys and sells the odd car...but doesn't really have or want to... and I'll leave my conjecture at that.
Depends on what year you're looking at as the 308 GT4 practically doubled in price during it's short seven year run. According to Road & Track, September 1975, the base price was $22,593. Then, according to Car and Driver, December 1979, the base price was $38,460. Road & Track: Image Unavailable, Please Login Car and Driver: Image Unavailable, Please Login
