1977 Ferrari 308 GTB – Carbureted V8 with Recent Mechanical Refresh
This 1977 Ferrari 308 GTB represents a well-maintained US-market example of the iconic steel-bodied sports car, finished in striking Fly Yellow over a Tobacco leather interior. Showing 38,000 miles, this carbureted V8 Ferrari was built in December 1976 and remained with a single California owner for over 30 years before recent ownership changes. Between 2016 and 2018, the car received a comprehensive mechanical refresh including an engine-out service, suspension updates, brake system overhaul, and engine compartment detailing. With its classic gated shifter, Campagnolo wheels, and recent major service, this 308 GTB offers the authentic Ferrari driving experience with sorted mechanical condition.
