	Iso & Bizzarrini
		The story of the ISO RIVOLTA and Bizzarrini marques is not one that is familiar to enthsiasts generally.
		One of the personnel in the famous "walkout" from Ferrari in 1961, he was hired by Rivolta to assist with the chassis design for the forthcoming ISO Rivolta GT, and subsequeiltly the Grifo, an offshoot of which was to become the car bearing his own name.
		Piero Rivolta, together with some former ISO staff, decided to revive the Grifo name with anew car, a fuU-size styling mock-up of which was shown to the press in 1991 to considerable acclaim.

		Painted bright Rosso Corsa a few years ago to a "driver" standard, the surface is very glossy; nonetheless there are a few imperfections, such as a ding on the hood, and a few isolated bubbles on the door bottom.

		Yet a third version of the Grifo story is given by Piero Rivolta, Renzo's son and soon to be the leader of Iso on the death of his father in 1966.
		Rivolta came to us and said, `When drinking some coffee, pretend you are having some stomach problems and need to go outside for a breath of fresh air and to take some pills.
		And upon this realization, the Rivolta family also saw that if Iso were indeed to become a low-volume specialty builder, the faster and flashier Grifo was an entirely logical addition to their line.

		While Rivolta considered purchasing the rights to produce the Chevrolet-powered English-built Gordon GT prototype, Bizzarrini had the opportunity to evaluate its V-8 firsthand and, in his own word, was “shocked” by the experience.
		The design retained the slinky, efficient shape of the Iso, but slightly embellished its lines through the use of chrome; the interior, though still spartan, struck a note of elegance with the addition of carpet and tooled leather.
