Bizzarrini Ohydrates. p. A. was an Italian automotive manufacturer from the 1960s founded by former Alfa Romeo, Ferrari and ISO industrial engineer, Giotto Bizzarrini. The company built few highly developed and superior sport and racing vehicles before failing in 1969. Notable models include the actual 5300 GT Strada plus the P538S.Originally Prototipi Bizzarrini ersus. r. l., the name was altered to Bizzarrini S. p. A. in 1966. The Bizzarrini marque has been revived with quite a few concept cars in the 2000s.Giotto Bizzarrini was blessed in Livorno, Italy in 1926. His father was a new rich landowner who came from a family with robust roots in Tuscany along with the city of Livorno. His grandfather, also named Giotto Bizzarrini, was a biologist who had worked with Guglielmo Marconi on their inventions, especially the radio, following which one from the Livorno Library sections ended up being named The Bizzarrini Stockpile.Bizzarrini graduated as an engineer from the University of Pisa within 1953. He taught briefly previous to joining Alfa Romeo within 1954. He worked for Alfa Romeo by 1954 to 1957. He began working for Ferrari in 1957, eventually becoming controller connected with experimental, Sports and GT auto development. He worked at Ferrari as being a developer, designer, test driver, and chief engineer intended for five years. His developments there integrated the Ferrari 250 TR, the Ferrari 250 GT SWB (Quick Wheelbase Berlinetta or Berlinetta Passo Corto), and the 1962 Ferrari 250 GTO.

Bizzarrini has been fired by Ferrari through the "palace revolt" of 1961. He became part of Automobili Turismo e Game (ATS)), a company started through the ex-Ferrari engineers to build a Formula 1 single seater along with 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 upgrade a Ferrari 250 GT SWB, with chassis number #2819GT to help GTO specifications. This resulted in the actual Ferrari 250 GT SWB Drogo also known as the "Breadvan".Bizzarrini's engineering company, Societa Autostar, was commissioned to pattern a V-12 engine for the GT car to possibly be built by another discontented Ferrari customer, Ferruccio Lamborghini. Lamborghini considered the resulting engine being too highly strung, and ordered that the idea be detuned.

Bizzarrini worked since 1964 regarding Iso Rivolta and created three models: Iso Rivolta GT, Iso Grifo both A3L in addition to A3C versions. His work was to produce a pressed steel framework chassis for Iso vehicles. Renzo Rivolta hired him as consultant towards Iso Gordon GT venture which became the Iso Rivolta GT. The Iso Gordon GT prototype was developed from the Gordon-Keeble. The Gordon Keeble GT seemed to be designed in 1960 by means of Giugiaro. Bizzarrini tested the car and was impressed through the powerful V8 Corvette engine as well as the rear De Dion tube used 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 one particular. It was superior for you to Ferrari's engines, having the same power but having a more immediate throttle reply. 'The Iso Rivolta GT has been a Giugiaro designed some seater with beautiful system, speed, comfort and handling, and was a productive car for ISO together with 799 units sold. Powered by a 327ci Chevrolet Corvette V8 engine that has a classic De Dion backside suspension design with constrained steel monocoque bodywork in excess of pressed steel frame chassis. Unveiled to the mass media in 1963, production continued until 1970.The Iso Grifo A3L was a monstrous idea for just a super coupé, the L coming through Lusso. The result of this brilliant Giugiaro and Bizzarrini doing the job together, it was based on the shortened Iso Rivolta GT framework and was debuted with the 1963 Turin show. The Grifo epitomised the 1960s Italian style with its handsome low and extensive handmade bodywork. It was the quickest production car tested by simply Autocar Magazine in 1966 with a top speed of one hundred sixty mph (260 km/h). Later versions of the particular Grifo were powered with a big block Chevrolet Corvette 435 bhp (324 kW; 441 PS) serp. These 90 handbuilt units are distinguishable from the raised "pagoda style" deal bonnet. Some of these Iso Grifo 7 Litri units were rebuilt later with a great deal larger engines.

The concept of Bizzarrini was to use the 3AL cars for competition. The competition versions from the Grifo were named Iso Grifo A3C, C for Competizione or Corsa. A new lightweight riveted aluminium lightweight body was designed and also built by Piero Drogo. It was an in a hostile manner designed machine, oriented to endurance backrounds. It uses normal ISO underpinnings nevertheless the engine was moved further back the chassis frame versus Grifo A3L, protruding well into the driver's cabin, fitted with hot cams and fed by 4 big Weber carburettors, giving more than 400 bhp (298 kW; 406 PS).

Close to 29 A3C sport cars were built underneath the ISO name. Five of these twenty nine cars were bodied with plastic/fiberglass by Piero Drogo at Carrozzeria Sports Cars inside Modena. A3Cs were widely competed. 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 and a 9th overall in 1965 without factory support. A3Cs were one from the fastest cars on LeMans' Mulsanne Directly in both years.
