This was one of the competitors in the Masters 'Gentleman
Drivers' GT and Sports Endurance Cars race at the Silverstone Classic meeting
in July 2010.
It's a 1965 Bizzarrini 5300 GT which has a 5,328cc V8 Chevrolet
engine and was driven in the one hour long race by Roger Wills and Joe Twyman. Giotto
Bizzarrini, who had previously worked with Alfa Romeo and Ferrari joined forces
with Renzo Rivolta to develop the Iso Rivolta GT, the Iso Grifo, and the Iso
Grifo A3L and A3C. Following a disagreement with Renzo Rivolta in 1964 Giotti
Bizzarrini split with Iso forming his own company and continued producing the
Iso Grifo A3C which was renamed the Bizzarrini 5300 GT.
