Bizzarrini worked since 1964 regarding Iso Rivolta and created three models: Iso Rivolta GT, Iso Grifo both A3L and A3C versions.

The Iso Gordon GT prototype was developed from the Gordon-Keeble. The Gordon Keeble GT has been designed in 1960 by Giugiaro. Bizzarrini tested the vehicle and was impressed by the powerful V8 Corvette engine along with the rear De Dion tube for the GT:'Rivolta had me test the prototype. I liked its De Dion tube and especially the Corvette serp. It was the first time I had driven 1. It was superior to help Ferrari's engines, having the same power but having a more immediate throttle result. 'The Iso Rivolta GT had been a Giugiaro designed 4 seater with beautiful system, speed, comfort and handling, and was a effective car for ISO with 799 units sold. Powered by a 327ci Chevrolet Corvette V8 engine which has a classic De Dion raise suspension design with hard pressed steel monocoque bodywork above pressed steel frame framework. Unveiled to the mass media in 1963, production continued until 1970.The Iso Grifo A3L seemed to be a monstrous idea for any super coupé, the L coming by Lusso. The result of the brilliant Giugiaro and Bizzarrini working together, it was based on the shortened Iso Rivolta GT framework and was debuted in the 1963 Turin show. The Grifo epitomised this 1960s Italian style with its handsome low and vast handmade bodywork.

The thinking behind Bizzarrini was to operate the 3AL cars for levels of competition. The competition versions with the Grifo were named Iso Grifo A3C, C for Competizione or maybe Corsa. A new lightweight riveted alloy body was designed along with built by Piero Drogo. It was an in a hostile manner designed machine, oriented to endurance races. It uses normal ISO underpinnings but the engine was moved further back in the chassis frame as opposed to Grifo A3L, protruding well into the actual driver's cabin, fitted with hot cams and fed by some big Weber carburettors, giving more than four hundred bhp (298 kW; 406 PS).
Close to 29 A3C sport cars were built beneath ISO name. Five of these 30 cars were bodied inside plastic/fiberglass by Piero Drogo in Carrozzeria Sports Cars within Modena. A3Cs were widely competed. Some cars entered your 1964 and 1965 Le Mans 24 hour, 1965 Nürburgring 1000 as well as 1965 Sebring. It achieved a Le Mans class win in both years along with a 9th overall in 1965 without factory support. A3Cs were one with the fastest cars on LeMans' Mulsanne Right in both years.
