Description

Sometimes, a car comes together so perfectly that it transcends its purpose and becomes a rolling work of art. This 1977 Ferrari 308 GTB Vetroresina, originally delivered in the Netherlands, finished in its original factory color and boasting matching numbers, is a living legend to that ideal. With its first paint, original fiberglass bodywork, and the rare EU Dry Sump configuration, this is one of the purest and most desirable Ferraris ever made. This Ferrari still has the same license plate as when it left the Ferrari dealer Kroymans in 1977.

Fully Original Condition – A Rare Discovery
This 308 GTB has never undergone a full restoration but has been meticulously maintained in its original state. The body panels, free of damage, retain the lightweight charm of the original fiberglass construction. The paint remains in its original condition, shining as a Ferrari should. Gotti Competition wheels, along with the original wheel set and spare wheel, highlight the car’s sporty heritage.

Technical Perfection – Thoroughly Rebuilt and Optimized
This Ferrari is a technical masterpiece. During an extensive rebuild, almost every essential component was replaced or optimized while retaining original specifications. Here are some technical highlights:

Engine and Fuel System
The 2. 9-liter Dry Sump V8 engine was fully rebuilt, including new cylinder liners, piston rings, and crankshaft bearings.
The entire fuel system, including twin aluminum tanks (N. O. S. Ferrari Vetroresina), fuel lines, and carburetors, was replaced or restored.
New timing belts, camshaft sprockets, and valve guides ensure peak performance.
A new water pump and improved cooling with Spal fans enhance durability.

Transmission and Handling
The transmission system was overhauled with a new clutch, pressure plate, and release bearing.
The steering rack was rebuilt, including new suspension components and ball joints.
The suspension system was fully renewed, including bushings, bearings, and a Formula GT adjustable coilover kit.

Braking System and Electronics
The braking system was upgraded with new discs, lines, and pads.
The electrical system was thoroughly inspected and restored to original condition with Magneti Marelli components, new fuse holders, and refurbished headlamp motors.
These comprehensive updates make this 308 GTB not only reliable, but also exceptionally enjoyable to drive.

Interior and Driving Experience
The interior delivers authenticity and Italian elegance. From the original fabric seats to the period-correct details such as the radio cover and unique patina, everything feels right. The steering wheel and cockpit transport you back to the 1970s, while the driving experience is nothing short of breathtaking. The balance, precision, and unmistakable V8 sound make every drive a thrill. Nothing comes close to the mechanical feeling that this thoroughbred Italian gives you.

An Iconic Ferrari – The 308 GTB Vetroresina
The 308 GTB Vetroresina was Ferrari’s first production car with a fiberglass body, and remains a rare model in the automotive world. With limited production, this model marked a milestone in Ferrari’s history as a pioneer in weight-saving and performance.
