This was one of the cars entered in the Coys of
Kensington Pre 1964 GT Cars race at the Silverstone Historic Festival meeting
in July 2000.
It's the 1963 Iso A3C driven by Jeremy
Agace and Ray Bellm in the race. The car was designed by Giotto Bizzarrini who
later left Iso and continued producing the car as a Bizzarrini A3C. The
programme of the event had this note about the car:
‘Monaco based Agace’s Iso, the company’s Turin
show car of ’63, benefits from a hulking great 5.3 litre Chevrolet V8 engine,
buried as far back as possible in the cockpit bulkhead for optimum weight
distribution. Well balanced, and superbly fettled by Paul Lanzante’s équipe,
its impressive Historic log includes winning last year’s Spa 6 hours and the GT
class of the Paul Ricard 24 hours in ’98. Co-driver
Bellm is still seriously quick.’
