The Ferrari 308 GTB arrived in 1975 at the Paris Motor Show, marking a significant evolution for Maranello's road car lineup. Designed by Leonardo Fioravanti at Pininfarina, it replaced the venerable Dino 246 and introduced a more angular, aggressive aesthetic that would define Ferrari's design language for the next decade. Initially offered only as a *Vetroresina* (fiberglass) body for the European market, the steel-bodied GTB, like this example, quickly became the standard, combining stunning looks with the intoxicating wail of its transverse-mounted, carbureted 2.9-liter V8 engine. With its accessible performance and iconic styling, the 308 GTB quickly became a cultural touchstone, forever etched in the minds of enthusiasts and solidifying its place as one of Ferrari's most recognizable and beloved models. This 1977 Ferrari 308 GTB, chassis number 26143, presents a remarkable opportunity, showing just 27,000 miles from new. Finished in a sophisticated silver over a black leather interior, this steel-bodied GTB has spent an impressive 37 years under the care of a single owner, a testament to its cherished existence. The desirable carbureted engine, known for its visceral character and purity, remains a highlight for collectors. Having been driven sparingly yet maintained diligently, this 308 GTB is described as a mechanically excellent driver, benefiting from a major service performed in 2023, with records included to document its care. This is an exceptional chance to acquire a meticulously maintained, low-mileage example of Ferrari's definitive 1970s sports car.
