Swiss delivery

Rare version “Vetroresina” – fiberglass, dry sump

Swiss road registration with veteran entry

The Ferrari 308 GTB Vetroresina offered here in the color Azzurro Metallizzato is one of the rare and sought-after models with fiberglass bodywork and dry sump lubrication. It was delivered to the first owner by the official Ferrari importer in Geneva in July 1976. The car was in the last ownership for over 10 years and was always cherished and cared for. The on-board folder with original owner’s manual, service booklet and exhaust maintenance document is present. This beautiful Ferrari 308 GTB Vetroresina is in top-maintained and very original collector’s condition.

To fill the gap in the portfolio, the 308 GTB was introduced in 1975, establishing a successful model series that was to last for a total of 10 years. The first 308 GTBs had a GRP body (called “Vetroresina” in Italian), but Scaglietti switched to a conventional steel body after just a few models with polyester bodies had been produced, as it was too time-consuming to manufacture the body from glass fiber-reinforced plastic.

Only the 308 GTB built for the European market until 1980 had an engine with dry sump lubrication. Cars for overseas and the 308 GTS and all later Berlinetta and Spider successor models with intake manifold injection had engines with wet sump lubrication.
