Bizzarrini Azines. p. A. was an Italian automotive manufacturer within the 1960s founded by former Alfa Romeo, Ferrari and ISO industrial engineer, Giotto Bizzarrini. The company built only a few highly developed and state-of-the-art sport and racing motor vehicles before failing in 1969. Notable models include the actual 5300 GT Strada along with the P538S.Originally Prototipi Bizzarrini azines. r. l., the name was modified to Bizzarrini S. p. A. in 1966. The Bizzarrini marque continues to be revived with a number of concept cars in your 2000s.Giotto Bizzarrini was born in Livorno, Italy in 1926. His father was some sort of rich landowner who came from a family with powerful roots in Tuscany along with the city of Livorno. His grandfather, also named Giotto Bizzarrini, was a biologist who had caused Guglielmo Marconi on his inventions, especially the radio, following which one of the Livorno Library sections had been named The Bizzarrini Selection.Bizzarrini graduated as an engineer inside the University of Pisa throughout 1953. He taught briefly before joining Alfa Romeo throughout 1954. He worked for Alfa Romeo coming from 1954 to 1957. He began working with regard to Ferrari in 1957, eventually becoming controller regarding experimental, Sports and GT vehicle development.

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

Bizzarrini worked since 1964 intended for Iso Rivolta and developed three models: Iso Rivolta GT, Iso Grifo both A3L in addition to A3C versions. His work was to build up a pressed steel framework chassis for Iso cars and trucks. Renzo Rivolta hired him as consultant on the Iso Gordon GT undertaking which became the Iso Rivolta GT. The Iso Gordon GT prototype got its start from the Gordon-Keeble. The Gordon Keeble GT has been designed in 1960 by Giugiaro. Bizzarrini tested the vehicle and was impressed from the powerful V8 Corvette engine along with the rear De Dion tube employed for the GT:'Rivolta got me test the prototype. I liked its De Dion pipe and especially the Corvette serps. It was the first-time I had driven 1. It was superior to Ferrari's engines, having the same power but that has a more immediate throttle reply. 'The Iso Rivolta GT ended up being a Giugiaro designed four seater with beautiful entire body, speed, comfort and handling, and was a productive car for ISO having 799 units sold. Powered by a 327ci Chevrolet Corvette V8 engine that has a classic De Dion backed suspension design with pushed steel monocoque bodywork in excess of pressed steel frame framework. Unveiled to the push in 1963, production continued until 1970.The Iso Grifo A3L had been a monstrous idea for a super coupé, the L coming coming from Lusso. The result of this brilliant Giugiaro and Bizzarrini working together, it was based on a shortened Iso Rivolta GT framework and was debuted with the 1963 Turin show. The Grifo epitomised the actual 1960s Italian style which consists of handsome low and large handmade bodywork. It was the speediest production car tested by simply Autocar Magazine in 1966 having 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 by the raised "pagoda style" scoop bonnet. Some of these Iso Grifo 7 Litri devices were rebuilt later with even bigger engines.

The idea of Bizzarrini was to utilize the 3AL cars for rivalry. The competition versions in the Grifo were named Iso Grifo A3C, C for Competizione or perhaps Corsa. A new lightweight riveted alloy body was designed in addition to built by Piero Drogo. It was an strongly designed machine, oriented to endurance backrounds. It uses normal ISO underpinnings but the engine was moved further in the chassis frame than the Grifo A3L, protruding well into the driver's cabin, fitted with hot cameras and fed by several big Weber carburettors, giving more than 500 bhp (298 kW; 406 PS).

Around 29 A3C sport cars were built within the ISO name. Five of these 30 cars were bodied throughout plastic/fiberglass by Piero Drogo at Carrozzeria Sports Cars with Modena. A3Cs were widely competed. Some cars entered this 1964 and 1965 The Mans 24 hour, 1965 Nürburgring 1000 as well as 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 on the fastest cars on LeMans' Mulsanne Directly in both years.
