Serenissima.One of ATS's financial backers, Count Giovanni Volpi, owner of Scuderia Serenissima, hired Bizzarrini to improve a Ferrari 250 GT SWB, with chassis number #2819GT to help GTO specifications. This resulted in this Ferrari 250 GT SWB Drogo also called the "Breadvan".Bizzarrini's engineering company, Societa Autostar, was commissioned to layout a V-12 engine to get a GT car to possibly be built by another unhappy Ferrari customer, Ferruccio Lamborghini. Lamborghini considered the resulting engine for being too highly strung, and ordered that it be detuned.

Bizzarrini worked since 1964 for Iso Rivolta and developed three models: Iso Rivolta GT, Iso Grifo both A3L along with A3C versions. His work was to formulate a pressed steel framework chassis for Iso cars and trucks. Renzo Rivolta hired him as consultant to the Iso Gordon GT task which became the Iso Rivolta GT. The Iso Gordon GT prototype was made from the Gordon-Keeble. The Gordon Keeble GT had been designed in 1960 through Giugiaro. Bizzarrini tested the auto and was impressed through the powerful V8 Corvette engine and also the rear De Dion tube used by the GT:'Rivolta got me test the prototype. I liked its De Dion conduit and especially the Corvette serps. It was the first time I had driven just one. It was superior in order to Ferrari's engines, having the same power but with a more immediate throttle answer. 'The Iso Rivolta GT ended up being a Giugiaro designed some seater with beautiful body, speed, comfort and handling, and was a successful car for ISO together with 799 units sold. Powered by a 327ci Chevrolet Corvette V8 engine that has a classic De Dion raise suspension design with pressed steel monocoque bodywork above pressed steel frame chassis. Unveiled to the click in 1963, production continued until 1970.The Iso Grifo A3L was a monstrous idea to get a super coupé, the L coming coming from Lusso. The result of the actual brilliant Giugiaro and Bizzarrini functioning together, it was based over a shortened Iso Rivolta GT chassis and was debuted on the 1963 Turin show. The Grifo epitomised your 1960s Italian style featuring a handsome low and wide handmade bodywork. It was the speediest production car tested through Autocar Magazine in 1966 using a top speed of one hundred sixty mph (260 km/h). Later versions of your Grifo were powered with a big block Chevrolet Corvette 435 bhp (324 kW; 441 PS) serps. These 90 handbuilt units are distinguishable with the raised "pagoda style" scoop bonnet. Some of these Iso Grifo 7 Litri units were rebuilt later with a whole lot larger engines.

The concept of Bizzarrini was to operate the 3AL cars for competitors. The competition versions of the Grifo were named Iso Grifo A3C, C for Competizione or maybe Corsa. A new lightweight riveted aluminium lightweight body was designed along with built by Piero Drogo. It was an more boldly designed machine, oriented to endurance events. It uses normal ISO underpinnings even so the engine was moved further in the chassis frame as opposed to Grifo A3L, protruding well into the particular driver's cabin, fitted with hot cams and fed by four big Weber carburettors, giving more than 500 bhp (298 kW; 406 PS).

Close to 29 A3C sport cars were built beneath the ISO name. Five of these 30 cars were bodied throughout plastic/fiberglass by Piero Drogo at Carrozzeria Sports Cars within Modena. A3Cs were widely ran. Some cars entered the actual 1964 and 1965 Le Mans 24 hour, 1965 Nürburgring 1000 and 1965 Sebring. It achieved a Le Mans class win in both years as well as a 9th overall in 1965 without factory support. A3Cs were one in the fastest cars on LeMans' Mulsanne Right in both years.
