keys?

74. Musta growed up.

Relatively stock but setup well. Anyone know what they actually scale
at? Under 3000lbs I'd guess for a Euro.
Anyone who doesn't think these are pretty hasn't seen one in Euro spec
OR needs brain surgery:

I
just had a wonderful 30 minute backroad drive in a friend's euro
308GT4.
Wow...what a great car.
I hadn't driven or ridden in
one for a few years, so I was overdue.
The steering feel was
exceptional as I'd remembered from other 308s. The chassis was perfectly
balanced over a twisty section of DC park zone we call Rock
Creek Park.
When these 308 motors are setup right, they are
exceptional. The low speed grunt of the carbed motors sure does the job
in a light euro spec chassis.
Power? Not bad. Not a monster, but
holy F*CK it is a really fun car.
I was just telling a good friend
about the 540bhp (from 4.7 liters), 9000rpm motor I'm building for my '66
GT350. I was justifying it by telling him that after owning my Mallett 7
liter C5R that put out just under 600bhp, it was tough to go back to a
"regular" engine.
But, I'm eating those words big time tonight. I'd
buy a 308 again in a heartbeat. Now, I was never a 308 doubter...not even
close. But I just hadn't thought about one in a few years.
For you
guys out there with one, I'm jealous!
LS (Reminded tonight that
you don't need 600bhp to have fun in a
car)
Great write up Deep, I appreciate the
reminder why we liked these cars in the first place.... And yes, we
don't need 400/500/600 hp to have fun in a car. As for the 308 GT/4s,
they keep getting more interesting with time don't they?? :) You drove
a relatively stock one right? Imagine driving THE
SHADOW... Haha.. FG
