1977 Ferrari 308 GTB Koenig Specials Widebody for sale

Current customer rating: current rating for this car(2.5) based on 831 votes
This vehicle was just 1 of 20 rare vehicles that I purchased several years ago from a one off collection. It sat next to several high end vehicles. including a million dollar Rolls Royce. The collector was very particular as to what he kept around. there were no ordinary cars. Although this 308 has a lot of character. driving it is a bit of an issue. I am 6'6" so I have been sticking to my Mercedes 6 door as a daily driver during the summer. I would much rather see someone else enjoy this Ferrari. It beats collecting dust in the garage. There are some minor chips in the paint. but nothing that would discourage anyone from purchasing it. The car was repainted when the Koenig widebody was installed. I recently had the car tuned up and changed the water pump and fuel pump.   It took a full 18 months to get this car shipped to us because it didn't have any keys and the wheels were locked in an awkward position.  As you can see in the photos. there are 2 sets of wheels. This is because we needed to get it to drive and roll until we found a nice set of wheels for it. I have a friend in CA that will custom man any type of wheel for this 308 GTB Koenig.  I have attached an example of what it could look like with custom made wheels. This is a perfect opportunity to own an original. rare Ferrari. Why spend $100. 00 when you can enjoy this beautiful machine for less? Classic cars are making a come back. invest now. while you can.  The rest of my collection is located in North Chicago. where I am from. I do not have enough room for my cars in Los Angeles. Feel free to message me to set up a time to take a look at this vehicle in person.  
The Ferrari 308 GTB was introduced at the Paris Salon in October 1975. It showed a similar mechanical layout to the Bertone-styled 308 GT4. but was equipped with only two seats. The beautifully styled coachwork by Pininfarina incorporated some visual aspects of the fantastic Dino 246 GT.

This is a special Ferrari 308 GTBIt is equipped with a Koenig Specials wide body kit.  
A little about Koenig Specials:
Koenig-Specials was founded by Willy König. The company was based in Munich. in the south of Germany. The story starts when Willy König (or Koenig whatever you want) bought himself the first Ferrari 365 BB in Germany. back in 1974. Willy König was a car racer and a publisher at the time. Because he wasn't pleased with the performance of his new Ferrari he had it modified by engine-specialists and coachbuilding companies to suit his demands of creating the ultimate racingcar for the streets. Soon other people got interested in König's modified 365 BB the hobby was turned into a professional bussiness: Koenig-Specials was born in 1977.

Koenig-Specials outsourced it's modifications to companies and specialists with experience in the bussiness. The engine tuning was often done by Franz Albert and many of the widebody designs were done by Vittorio Strosek. who later started his own Porsche tuning-company.

 

Koenig-Specials is one of those tuning-companies who had just as much enemies as fans back in the 1980s. His modified Ferraris were not liked by the Maranello manufacturer. Enzo Ferrari ordered all stallion badges off the Koenig cars. Many people dislike Willy König's creations. but still he's a tuning-legend with many fans all over the world.
