1978 Ferrari 308 GTS
.............................
Ferrari introduced the 308 GTB at the Paris Salon in October 1975 to be built alongside the Dino 308 GT4 and share its engine. The new two-seater would also wear Ferrari badges, only with no Dino script anywhere. Still, it was the true successor to the original Dino of the ’60s. For one, the 308 was penned by Pininfarina’s Leonardo Fioravanti, the same designer responsible for the original 206/246. It also has styling elements of the old Dino, like the long air intakes, circular taillights, and recessed rear glass. The body’s shape, meanwhile, retains some classic curvature while still conforming to the wedge styling so in vogue in the ’70s.

When introduced, the 308 was the very first production Ferrari to wear fiberglass (vetroresina in Italian) bodywork, but despite the material’s light weight and the high quality of the shells Ferrari used, the company quietly switched to steel bodywork after late 1976 on U.S. market cars and mid-1977 for European market cars. Just 712 of these 308 “Vetroresinas” left the factory, including 154 in right-hand drive. Early U.S. 308 GTBs came with a wet-sump lubrication system and 255 horsepower, while the Euro cars came with a dry sump and are a little quicker. Regardless of market, however, the 2.9-liter V-8 breathes through a quartet of Weber carburetors and shifts via a full-synchromesh five-speed gearbox with the famous open-gate shifter plus a dog-leg first gear.

After the move from fiberglass to steel, the next big development in the 308 story was the introduction of a Spider version called the GTS in late 1977. Really more of a targa than a Spider, the new 308 GTS came with a black vinyl-covered removable roof panel that could hide behind the seats or just stay in the garage. The spider version beckoned to everyone who needed to be seen in their Ferrari, from wealthy playboys to Magnum P.I., and in the 308’s later years the GTS outsold the GTB by a margin of four to one.
