    Hello FerrariChat community,

    I hope this post finds you all well and enjoying the holiday season. I'm reaching out to the knowledgeable members of this forum in the hopes that someone might be able to assist me with a predicament I've encountered.

    I am in the process of working on my 1978 US spec Ferrari 308 GTS, and with the Christmas shutdown approaching, I am eager to take care of some electrical upgrades. To do so, I've been trying to obtain the electrical diagrams for my beloved 308 GTS, and I initially looked into purchasing them from Paul Bennet's website, ferrari308gtbi.com.

    However, it seems that I've run into a bit of a hiccup. Whenever I attempt to check out on the website, it appears to be offline, and I'm unable to complete the transaction.

    I've tried multiple times without success, and it's left me in a bit of a bind as I was hoping to get started on the electrical work during the holiday break. If any fellow Ferrari enthusiasts have access to the electrical diagrams for the 1978 US spec Ferrari 308 GTS or know of an alternative source, I would be immensely grateful for your assistance. Whether you can share the diagrams directly or point me in the right direction, your help would be invaluable.

    Wishing each and every one of you a fantastic holiday season filled with joy, good company, and of course, some quality time with your Ferraris. Here's to a great end to the year and an even better start to the next one!

    Happy holidays!

    Do you have an owners manual? The wiring diagram is in the back.

    I have the 308 GT4 Workshop Manual which I believe has different wiring than that of a GTS

    I bought diagrams from Paul. He’s very helpful. Does he not have an email address?

    his diagrams are well worth it. Artwork. I had mine printed onto A2 from his pic and framed on the garage wall.

    I tried ordering online and reaching out to him for quite some time now, and I have not received any reply yet, its been weeks now. Looking at other threads I can even see others having this issue, and are not able to get ahold of him. One thread is over a myear old and after contacting OP he still can't get a hold of Paul.They still haven't heard back from him yet.

    I bought the wiring PDF's from Paul years ago. I had 2 printed and laminated locally for my 308. 36" x 24". One for my remote garage and one for home. I can let one of them go. However, there are copyrights on them with a disclaimer on his website "these files are copyright protected and are not to be shared or distributed"
    I would sell one of my copies for my printing and lamination costs. If it's legal. I don't know the rules on this.

    I'd like a soft copy since I find it easier to track wires with the zoom feature from my iPad. I tried contacting pail however never heard back unfortuantely. If someone could share with me a copy that would be incredibly helpful. I am happy to pay Paul when he gets back to me.

    just saw this thread....
    When I last spoke to Paul I believe he was in an assisted living facility of some sort.
    He apologized as it took him several days to get back to me.
    I believe he is in his eighties now.
    FYI
