From what I've been able to find with a quick google, somewhere in the $25000-$40000 range for a good one. This wasn't a particularly rare Ferrari (we're talking relative terms here...) I recall reading that many of these cars were trashed by the time they went on to second or third owners. Ah...the 'greed is good' 80's. Many of the ones you find for sale can be real money-pits, so looking carefully and objectively would be the order of the day.
I'd say you could get a decent one for about $30K.
But, "budget" and "Ferrari" don't live in the same sentence. You better be a really skilled mechanic if you want to keep one of those 308s running reliably, or have deep pockets.
I love the headline. It's like, "You may have won this awesome car or 5,621 other prizes including a piece of absolute crap that is not pictured here for obvious reasons."

My dad had that from the '80s until 1998.
