    "construite selon les spécifications du groupe B Construit par l'importateur américain Angelo Pedretti, en utilisant des pièces d'origine Michelotto"

    So "built by Angelo Pedretti using Michelotto parts ...."

    No ?

    No the Michelotto GR4 widening is much more straight, I have searched for this all over but cant find anything, this widebody starts much higher up on the arch

    One of my favorite 308's. I saw it a few years back at Cavallino. Those fenders were fabbed by hand and they are steel. Standard "pie" and flare job but looks better than the Micheloto flares IMO.

    I know the flares very well as I studied them intensely at Cavallino. Perhaps I can help?

    Here's some images I have. Trying to find the rest.

    You get a feel for how they flared out the rear. It's not a full on GTO type flare. They didn't extend the flare surface to the intake like the GTO did. I'm sure this was intentional as reshaping the intake into a flare would be very, very time consuming. Also not on the front they didn't change the lower fascia much to blend into the new shape.

    I believe this is the car converted by a former New York dealer owner. Ive seen it for sale a couple times.
