Bizzarrini Utes. p. A. was an Italian automotive manufacturer from the 1960s founded by former Alfa Romeo, Ferrari and ISO professional, Giotto Bizzarrini. The company built a small amount of highly developed and sophisticated sport and racing cars before failing in 1969. Notable models include the 5300 GT Strada and also the P538S.Originally Prototipi Bizzarrini ersus. r. l., the name was modified to Bizzarrini S. p. A. in 1966. The Bizzarrini marque continues to be revived with numerous concept cars in the actual 2000s.Giotto Bizzarrini was blessed in Livorno, Italy in 1926. His father was any rich landowner who got their start in a family with powerful roots in Tuscany and also the city of Livorno. His grandfather, also named Giotto Bizzarrini, was a biologist who had caused Guglielmo Marconi on his or her inventions, especially the radio, following which one on the Livorno Library sections had been named The Bizzarrini Catalogue.Bizzarrini graduated as an engineer in the University of Pisa within 1953. He taught briefly ahead of joining Alfa Romeo with 1954. He worked for Alfa Romeo from 1954 to 1957. He began working intended for Ferrari in 1957, eventually becoming controller connected with experimental, Sports and GT automobile development. He worked at Ferrari like a developer, designer, test driver, and chief engineer intended for five years. His developments there incorporated the Ferrari 250 TR, the Ferrari 250 GT SWB (Short Wheelbase Berlinetta or Berlinetta Passo Corto), and the 1962 Ferrari three hundred GTO.

Bizzarrini has been fired by Ferrari in the "palace revolt" of 1961. He became part of Automobili Turismo e Game (ATS)), a company started with the ex-Ferrari engineers to create a Formula 1 single seater and a GT sport car, the A. T. S. Serenissima.One of ATS's monetary backers, Count Giovanni Volpi, owner of Scuderia Serenissima, hired Bizzarrini to improve a Ferrari 250 GT SWB, with chassis number #2819GT in order to GTO specifications. This resulted in the particular Ferrari 250 GT SWB Drogo often known as the "Breadvan".Bizzarrini's engineering company, Societa Autostar, was commissioned to design a V-12 engine for any GT car to always be built by another unhappy Ferrari customer, Ferruccio Lamborghini. Lamborghini considered the resulting engine to be too highly strung, and ordered that the item be detuned.

Bizzarrini worked since 1964 for Iso Rivolta and developed three models: Iso Rivolta GT, Iso Grifo both A3L as well as A3C versions. His work was to formulate a pressed steel frame chassis for Iso vehicles. Renzo Rivolta hired him as consultant towards the Iso Gordon GT project which became the Iso Rivolta GT. The Iso Gordon GT prototype was created from the Gordon-Keeble. The Gordon Keeble GT was designed in 1960 by Giugiaro. Bizzarrini tested the auto and was impressed from the powerful V8 Corvette engine and also the rear De Dion tube used for the GT:'Rivolta acquired me test the prototype. I liked its De Dion pipe and especially the Corvette serps. It was the first time I had driven one. It was superior to be able to Ferrari's engines, having the same power but which has a more immediate throttle reaction. 'The Iso Rivolta GT ended up being a Giugiaro designed 4 seater with beautiful entire 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 using a classic De Dion raise suspension design with hard pressed steel monocoque bodywork more than pressed steel frame chassis. Unveiled to the push in 1963, production continued until 1970.The Iso Grifo A3L ended up being a monstrous idea to get a super coupé, the L coming via Lusso. The result of your brilliant Giugiaro and Bizzarrini working together, it was based using a shortened Iso Rivolta GT chassis and was debuted at the 1963 Turin show. The Grifo epitomised this 1960s Italian style which consists of handsome low and broad handmade bodywork. It was the most effective production car tested simply by Autocar Magazine in 1966 that has a top speed of 160 mph (260 km/h). Later versions of the Grifo were powered with a big block Chevrolet Corvette 435 bhp (324 kW; 441 PS) engine. These 90 handbuilt units are distinguishable from the raised "pagoda style" scoop bonnet. Some of these Iso Grifo 7 Litri units were rebuilt later with a great deal larger engines.

The concept of Bizzarrini was to utilize the 3AL cars for competitors. The competition versions with the Grifo were named Iso Grifo A3C, C for Competizione or perhaps Corsa. A new lightweight riveted aluminum body was designed and built by Piero Drogo. It was an in a hostile manner designed machine, oriented to endurance events. It uses normal ISO underpinnings however the engine was moved further back the chassis frame than the Grifo A3L, protruding well into the actual driver's cabin, fitted with hot cameras and fed by some big Weber carburettors, giving more than 600 bhp (298 kW; 406 PS).

All around 29 A3C sport cars were built under the ISO name. Five of these twenty nine cars were bodied inside plastic/fiberglass by Piero Drogo from Carrozzeria Sports Cars inside Modena. A3Cs were widely ran. Some cars entered the particular 1964 and 1965 Le Mans 24 hour, 1965 Nürburgring 1000 along with 1965 Sebring. It achieved a Le Mans class win in both years and a 9th overall in 1965 with no factory support. A3Cs were one from the fastest cars on LeMans' Mulsanne Immediately in both years.
