1978 Ferrari 308 GTB review from North America
"A double-edged sword"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Despite having a supposedly rebuilt engine, the car would no longer start, only three months after the purchase. Two weeks after a cd$400 repair the car failed to start once again. The car was then towed back and sold.
General comments?
Ferraris are a thrill, but don't buy one that is too old and beaten up.
