I couldn't agree more, the amount of stress that car caused me. Having said that there were many more problems on it that got fixed in the process

I have to say I got a bit choked up by this video Scott because of the community spirit on display here between Ian and yourself. It would be wonderful if Ian’s enthusiasm and knowledge could help your BBi project.

It was going either way a simple fix or a very difficult engine out job .... so despite kicking myself for not finding this, i am very relieved it was simple and now sorted.

Ian’s 308 looks stunning in blue!👍👍

I remember working at a tech in a USAF electrical equipment lab and would get stuck. I'd eventually have a collegue come over and see what I had missed. He'd usually spot the problem right away. And I'd do the same for him once in a while. We seem to get blinded from time to time, yet there can be so many possibilities that it can be quite helpful to have someone else with fresh eyes have a look.

That is a Video For Keeps to anybody works on Ferrari's. Many bits of knowledge. Cheers Mate

Ian is spot on, italian mechanics is usually bombproof, it goes for Fiat, Alfa, Maserati, etc. Its the electrics & plastics that’s sometimes frail. Engines, gearboxes, rear diff’s, they last forever. Thats where the germans still got a lot to learn!

Re the blue concourse car: My dad's best friend, David Gatehouse was the boss at Huddersfield Garages during that period and it's likely that he ran that car. I may even have been in it as a kid as he'd often visit and take me for a spin. I always used to get in the Ferrari motor show stands as a boy, happy days.

That what i love about KZread you find out and hear these fantastic stories often linked to the cars and the history. when i started the BBi series it was heart warming to find out all the historical details from the ferrari driver who delivered it to past owners.

Ian's reaction when he saw you car was the same reaction when I sold my Caterham to him ( he bought the car for his son ) ......His son had to remind him it was an ex race car and not a concours Ferrari. Seen his 308 at Salon Prive amazing car. Genuine Ferrari enthusiast and when I get mine I would have no hesitation to take it to Barkaway,

Can I just say that Ian and Ben at Barkaways are amazing …… their commitment to customer satisfaction and their knowledge is outstanding ……. And Ian’s 308 is probably the best in the world and a testament to what Barkaways can achieve.

brilliant video and Barkaways is the only one of 3 specialists i know that really give a crap about the cars.

So happy for You that this one is sorted out, especially after the backblow of the crazy expensive ecu. 7:26 "That's foward motion, isn't it?" made me laugh so hard (and all of his curses in the beginning too). We love You, keep up!

Very glad you sorted out the problem and, what an amazing workshop Barkaways is!

Only a few hundreds of them were built at the time and a lot less still survive nowadays. Happy Christmas Scott!

Bravo!!! I like Barkaway's They're really into Ferraris for real like Ian Terrell.. Not saying you're not! 😂 But it's always great to collaborate with some greats. Scott enjoy your Holiday 🎉🎄

The resto on the blue one is great but I actually prefer the grey.

Plug wires! I bought a '41 yacht a few years ago that wouldn't run and needed two new 454s. apparently the "marine" mechanic routed the wires wrong because the factory had the two engines swapped (one spins CW and the other CCW). When I realized the issue, I put the wires where they belonged and both engines fired. Its been a good boat since.

What a knowledgeable gentleman... Well done to Ian and all the team at Barkaways.

Nice vid. A nice colab with Barkaways even though the Ferrari was poorly. Hope you got experience his Ferrari.

You folks need to check out Jared Pink from the questionable garage.. he made a holley fuel injection setup work on a 308.

couple of things from my very amateur restoration knowledge, those pipe clamps are what should be on any car, you shouldn't use jubilee clips on fuel hoses. The "double ear" clamps are what's supposed to be used. Also to protect alloy cases, I use ACF-50..stays like a film, but stops alloy and bright metal oxidising..

The 308 is still one of my dream cars, glad it is sorted

I am amazed at his knowledge and love the blue! It suits it nicely as well as the grey. Cheers!

It's probably because of my age but I love the 308?328/288 body style. It's timeless, it looks as good today as it did back then.

That blue 308 is marvellous, makes me miss my 84 qv, also blue (albeit a bit lighter shade), with black interiors. I always prefer non-red ferraris 🙂. I still regret selling, of course!

Ian's 308 looks amazing in that blue colour, I am so glad that he managed to get your 308 figured out, there is no shame in having an expert fix your problem, and if they put the valve covers on like that, well if you didn't have the manual how would you know it was wrong. I like that silver car also, with a good poliish on it, it would look good. Whoever gets that silver 308 will be lucky after all the work you and Ian put into it to fix the issues. I am enjoying the builds you are doing as you switch between them. Keep up the good work, glad you have a new garage to do some work in compared to just at home.

I am currently restoring my very low mile 25yr old vehicle. Restoration can be so infuriating, never mind the availability of parts. So, this situation with the plug wires doesn't surprise me in the least. Personally I am almost completed, nearly there, and that seems to be the sticking point. Good luck on the BBI Scott, I so look forward to you completing it and sending it on to a new owner for a substantial cheque. I swear if its not a closed course its too dangerous to hazard pottering about the highways and byways.

I’ve been collecting and restoring old Pontiac GTOs and Firebirds for 45 years. My parts collection over the years is pretty plentiful, and what I don’t have on the shelf I can get relatively easily. I just picked up a 1968 Chrysler 300 a few weeks ago. Ummmmm Parts for this thing are pretty scarce! Like a nice lower Rocker molding for the passenger side. None around worth buying, and no repops anywhere. Chrysler emblem for the trunk lid. Upholstery is not a problem, but little things like seat hinge covers. Nope! This thing is a true unicorn! Parts swap meets is my best alternative for weird parts! Hopefully someone doesn’t know what they have, as you can pretty much name your price!

As I learned from Bob Wallace here in Phoenix, you get rid of old crap and install new. The idea of trying to revive aa 308 by tracking one wire, then another was doomed to failure.

Firing order always sounded out. I guess you should never trust a previous owner if the car turns up a non runner. Merry Christmas mate!

The crazy thing is I even checked the cams to see if they were out. I looked at the firing order at the plug end (labeled) but just didn't spot at the cap end they were wired wrong... big relief to have it running now though

Well simple fix. Always when you fix cars you thing its some major or something 1 of kind fault, but no just go to basics like fireing order, make sure you have fuel and injectors work/carb so on. Engines are quite simple afther all. Last one i took every possible stuff/electrics out from my mb slk , and fix were just one loose wire in box :)

Its always the way. i overlooked a simple one .... but my brain was fried from all the other issues.

Have to give my own experince on this.... I restored my Lamborghini Jarama V12 many year ago and trying to get it in best possible shape I also bought a new distributor cap to top off my total rebuild of the engine.. After a long total restore of the car it was finally time to start the engine .....As you might know, the distributor cap has a number on each connector to indicate what cylinder it should be connected to. So after all was setup, initial timing set, some fuel in the carbs I was firing it up. Well it did not run good, if at all......flames shooting out of some carbs and running really bad. As most would think it was just a timing issue....but after a lot of twisting and turning nothing improved. Trying to understand what was wrong I had suggestions of just about everything imaginable including installing the cams wrong. Eventually, after some days I was checking if the sparkplug leads were correctly installed, and yes it was all to correct numbers on the distributor cap. However, by coincidens I compared the two caps and behold of my surprice when I noticed that the numberings where not the same. It turned out that Lamborghin during some time had changed the numbering logic from which cylinder to connect to, to the firing order of the cylinders.......(or if it was the opposite!) Once re-arranged it started like a charm......running smoothly with that great V12 roar one revved 🙂
