Supplied new by UK market importer Maranello Concessionaires for their dealer H. R Owen in London, Chassis 22555 (order F/ 219) was a RHD Verde Pino (106-G-30) car specified with Beige (VM3218) hide, Corda carpets and Air Conditioning. An early steel bodied example benefitting from dry sump and carburetors, Chassis 22555 was delivered on April 24th 1978 to the CEO of the Kuwait Investment Office with an on the road price of £13, 146. This matching numbers car benefits from a comprehensive service history with supporting documentation confirming the cars provenance. Chassis 22555 has just returned to us from a comprehensive mechanical and cosmetic restoration carried out by marque specialist SMDG Performance with work totalling in excess of £50, 000. The car remains in beautifully authentic condition retaining original window glass and interior. With the odometer now reading just under 33, 000 miles, this lovely example finished in the rare factory hue of Verde Pino presents a brilliant opportunity to purchase a very special automobile. 308’s have historically been overlooked compared to their immediate predecessor the Dino 246. This however creates an incredible buying opportunity for the investor and collector looking for the next Ferrari to find fame. The scintillating 2. 9 Litre F106 AB V8 engine and the last of the carbureted 8 cylinder Ferraris combined with a cracking chassis and Pininfarina coachwork which beautifully transcends 60s curves and 80s square lines.
