The naturally aspirated V12 is built by Cosworth and its 6,626cc is a reference to the date of Giotto Bizzarrini’s birth (June 6, 1926).

Iso Grifo Targa Series II (1 of 4). 
Renzo Rivolta was an omnipresent industrialist and serial innovator. Tracing his manufacturing roots to before World War II, he built everything from refrigerators to scooters before the sale of his Isetta bubble car venture to German giant BMW. The proceeds of the deal launched Iso Rivolta as a car manufacturer proper, with its eponymous Bertone-styled four-seat coupé arriving in 1962, followed three years later by the sportier Grifo.Styled by Bertone’s Giorgetto Giugiaro and engineered by Giotto Bizzarrini, the new model was a gran turismo in every sense and a true competitor to the Ferrari Daytona and Maserati Ghibli. But like the Rivolta—and very unlike its rivals from Emilia Romagna—the Grifo was powered by an American V-8. Simple, rugged and powerful, Chevrolet’s 5.4-litre small block was rated at 300 horsepower, offering performance to match Bertone’s eye-catching coachwork.By 1968, the 186-mph 7-Litri arrived, propelled by Chevrolet’s famed “L71” Tri-Power V-8. Things only got better two years later with the debut of the Series II, which brought with it more refined styling with stunning and contemporary hide-away headlamps—not to mention the option of the Bowtie’s 7.4-litre big-block V-8, which was fine-tuned with forged connecting rods and dry-sump lubrication.Due to eye-watering cost, just four Series II cars left the factory with open-topped Targa coachwork; chassis 350 is one of these special examples. The car was built on 4 July 1971, specified with a reinforced chassis frame and 300-horsepower 5.7-litre Chevrolet V-8 mated to a five-speed ZF manual gearbox and 3.31:1 rear axle. The car was also fitted with factory air conditioning.

American Motors AMX/3, 1970, by Italdesign. The AMX/2 was well received despite lacking an engine so AMC followed it with a fully operational mid-engined prototype powered by American Motor's 6.4 litre V8. Giotto Bizzarrini was involved in the car's development, the suspension and mid-engine chassis. What was not acknowledged at the time was that the styling was by Italdesign. The plan had been for the car to be made by German coachbuilder's Karmann and exported to the US to compete with the De Tomaso Pantera. However soon after the AMX/3 was presented the program was cancelled.

Bizzarrini 1900 GT Europa (1 of 12). 
The Bizzarrini 1900 GT Europa is a lightweight sports car that was built by the Italian automaker in the late 1960s in very limited numbers – just 12 were made in total and the car you’re looking here is the last one manufactured before the factory shut down. Giotto Bizzarrini, the mastermind behind the Bizzarrini 1900 GT Europa, was an accomplished engineer and designer. Before starting his own company, he worked for several prestigious Italian automakers, including Alfa Romeo, Ferrari, and Iso Rivolta. The Bizzarrini 1900 GT Europa was a significant milestone for the company, as it was their first affordable production model. It was a smaller, more attainable counterpart to the Bizzarrini 5300 GT Strada. The Europa was powered by a 1.9 liter Opel inline-four cylinder engine, which delivers a respectable 110 horsepower.
With a top speed of 128 mph and a 0-60 time of 10.5 seconds, the Europa offered drivers an exhilarating driving experience thanks in no small part to the impeccable engineering experience of Giotto Bizzarrini. The car was developed with independent front and rear suspension, a front-mid-mounted engine, four wheel disc brakes, a limited slip differential, an integral roll bar, and a well-balanced chassis that was more than a match for its competition in the late 1960s. The 1900 GT Europa’s distinctive design was a collaboration between Giotto Bizzarrini and the talented young Italian designer, Pietro Vanni with ample influence taken from the Bizzarrini 5300 GT. The final body shape was honed in the wind tunnel at Pisa University in order to get it as aerodynamically efficient as possible.
The Europa was notable for its low-slung profile, aggressive lines, and a minimalist cockpit designed with racing in mind. Its distinctive design language captured the essence of Italian sports cars in the 1960s, embodying elegance, performance, and outright speed.

1968 Bizzarrini 5300 GT Strada.
Designed by ex-Ferrari chief engineer Giotto Bizzarrini in 1963, the Strada was launched by his company in 1964. It was similar in concept to the Iso Grifo, also designed by Bizzarrini, and even used the Grifo name while in the planning stage, as well as the welded unibody platform of the Iso Rivolta 300.
