I also have a 1978 308GTS
Twice I have replaced the right rear wheel bearings. It makes a noticeable thumping sound when driving a right hand curve, ( the weight is transfered to the right side wheels) ). The noise goes away when in a left hand curve, (the weight is lifted off the right side bearings). In my case it was not a rumbling sound, but a knocking sound like you described.
