1975 308 Gt4 - California on 2040-cars

Year:1975 Mileage:92000
Location:

Laguna Niguel, California, United States

Laguna Niguel, California, United States

Highly desirable year for carbureted 308’s since it is smog exempt in California.  No more worry to get the car to pass smog every two years!  1975 Ferrari 308 GT4, VIN # 10330, production date March 1975.  This car started its life in California and was in Nevada for few years before I bought the car and brought back to California.  It is 100% rust free.  Please see list of work that has been done on the car in the last year.

 

  1. The car was completely stripped down including glasses, molding, lights, trim pieces, interior; doors, hood, engine cover and trunk were removed from the car.  The paint was completely sanded down to bare metal and was then primed, painted and color sanded.  The paint has five years warranty.

  2. The front valance is brand new.  I was able to find a NOS after extensive search.

  3. Both front seats leather were completely reupholstered.

  4. Complete new wool carpet inside the car.

  5. Complete new carpet in the trunk area.

  6. New Momo steering wheel.  I also have the original steering wheel that is in good condition and comes with the car.

  7. Vitaloni power left and right mirrors.  These are the same power mirrors that were equipped on the Ferrari BB512.

  8. All the doors weather stripping are new.

  9. All front window channels for the power windows and the fixed front door windows are new.

  10. All front window outside rubber and inside felt are new.

  11. Complete engine rebuilt by Norwood Performance (Bob Norwood) costing more than $15,000.  Every engine part that you can name was replaced including clutch.  I have all the receipts.

  12. The ignition system was converted to one distributor with electronic pick up sensor, one coil and MSD ignition system.  The kit was supplied by Norwood Performance.  This kit costs about $1,800 and is one of the best upgrades you can perform on the carbureted 308’s.

  13. All smog equipment has been removed from the car.

  14. Brand new European model Ansa exhaust system.  No catalytic converter.  The car sounds awesome.

  15. Brand new European model stainless steel front and rear exhaust headers

  16. All front and rear A-arms bushings both inner and outer were completely replaced.  I mean every single bushing.

  17. Ball joints were replaced.

  18. All bushings for the sway arms were replaced.

  19. All bushings on the Koni suspensions were replaced.

  20. Steering tire rod ends were replaced.

  21. Car was aligned.

  22. New 16” Ferrari wheel, New Hankook Ventus R-S3 tires, 205/50/16 front and 206/45/16 rear.  These are the correct tire sizes for this car and the front wheel do not rub on the wheel wells when the steering wheel is completely turned.

  23. The replacement of all the bushings, and the wider tires makes this car very tight and enjoyable to drive.

  24. New Bosch battery.

  25. Cold air conditioning.

  26. There is a small patch repair on the top of the dash and it is not visible from inside the car when seated.

 

The car drives perfectly, shifts great including the 2nd gear synchro.

As you can see this car was fully restored the way every Ferrari should be restored and not the Ferraris that are worth few hundred thousand dollars.  The car has original 92,000 miles on it, the complete engine rebuilt was done around 70,000, because the car is completely free of smog accessories, has the upgraded single electronic ignition conversion, system, and the European exhaust system, it has much more low end and wide open performance compare to the other carbureted 308’s.  I had a 1979 308 GT4 a few years ago with 10,000 original miles and this drives so much better and a lot more fun to drive.

 

The car was just recently checked and the carbs were tuned by a reputable Ferrari service and restoration shop in Redondo Beach, California.  The owner of the shop told me that this is one of the nicest 308 GT4’s that he has driven and has much more power.

Ferrari LaFerrari is beautifully redundant

Tue, 05 Mar 2013


The successor the Ferrari Enzo has officially bowed. Ferrari pulled the sheets back on the oddly named LaFerrari at the 2013 Geneva Motor Show, calling the machine the "maximum expression" of what defines the automaker. In this case, that includes a 6.3-liter V12 engine with 789 horsepower married to a 160-hp electric motor. The combination is good for a full 949 hp and 663 pound-feet of torque, and Ferrari says the LaFerrari can punch to 62 miles per hour in under three seconds. Keep your foot planted and 124 mph will click by in a scant seven seconds, while top speed sits at a lofty 205 mph.
Engineers turned to a total of four different types of hand-laminatated carbon fiber to create a chassis that's both stiffer and lighter than would have otherwise been possible. With a 41/59 weight distribution, carbon-ceramic brakes and ultra-light calipers, the LaFerrari is unlike anything we've seen from the company to date. The automaker says its creation is the fastest in its long history. You can take a look at the in-depth press release below for more information, and be sure to check out the model's new site here.

Watch this Ferrari Enzo get thrown around on farm roads

Tue, 12 Feb 2013

Tax the Rich, the YouTubers who seem to have sprung from some mischievous corner of the V for Vendetta universe, have somehow acquired a Ferrari Enzo for their latest trick. Last time we checked in with them, they were opposite-locking a Rolls-Royce Phantom at high speed all over a wet, muddy field. Perhaps knowing that if they repeated that with the Ferrari they'd end up with a dead stallion and a field full of carbon fiber parts, they kept the action to a mostly paved farm access road.
But still - using an Enzo for a tarmac rally stage is something we would not have though of, and there's a fair bit of water and mud, too. As Joseph Campanella used to say way back when, "What will they think of next?" Check out the video below and prepare to gaze in equal measures of shock, wonder and horror.

2015 Ferrari California T [w/video]

Tue, 03 Jun 2014

I'll never forget the day I bought my very first Ferrari. It was a bright-red F40, I'd saved up for it for what felt like an eternity and I couldn't wait to get home so I could park it next to my other four-wheeled piece of pride and joy, a stealth-black Lamborghini Countach, so I could compare their blunt-edge, wedge-like shapes and massive spoilers in microscopic detail.
The year was 1987, and the event felt like the pinnacle of my life's achievement. Though both of my Italians had been die-cast in 1/18th scale, I coveted the two supercars with the verve of a true collector, taking in the intricacies of their engine bays, opening their doors and turning their working steering wheels. In reality, the two could have hardly been more different, and yet they both looked like finely crafted perfection to my seven-year-old eyes, their questionable day-to-day practicality completely overshadowed by their unquestionably exotic shapes.
More than two decades later, I'm belting myself into the driver's seat of the 2015 Ferrari California T, the first turbocharged Ferrari since the F40 went out of production in 1992. The Tuscan countryside spreads out ahead, a twisting barrage of two-lane roads on the agenda, and I can't help but reminisce of my much younger self as I twist the red key and thumb the equally red ignition button on the steering wheel.
