    There are, but at 85K all you would get is a rust bucket in need of restoration. Going price for a driver is 145- 165k 90 point car 165-185k

    That car was bought well, i was surprised it did not go higher, but you need more than one bidder to accomplish that. it was a nice car.


    FYI some of these cars look great from the outside, but many have to have the box's under the doors rebuilt due to rust. All Iso's used a unibody chassis and rust got into most of them, especially cars in europe or the east coast. So In some cases you may be buying a great looking car that needs 10-15 K of sheet metal work.

    The good news is that on the Grifo the lower Stainless panels can be removed and you can get access to this area easily, but you know how that goes ......you start repairing one area then you decide you need new paint and after you strip for paint you find more rust, so you decide on a completes restoration..........

    Only 413 made, Giugiaro design, Bizzarrini engineered, they drive great and you can buy tune up parts at Pep Boys or Kragen's They will continue to climb in price.

    I met a guy that had one and he was looking to sell. His car was a nice driver, and I think he was expecting 90-100K for it. This was 2 or 3 years ago, prior to the economic collapse.

    There was a beautiful Iso Grifo displayed at our local auto show in Rockville, MD about 2 weeks ago.
    No idea who the owner is but it is a fantastic looking car.

    Is that an Italia Spyder next to it? The car probably came out of DEW Motorcars.

    Yes, the beautiful black convertible parked next to the Iso Grifo was a Intermeccanica Italia.

    There was a nice one for sale in The Netherlands a couple of years ago (with an aftermarket sunroof).
    The owner still has it, but I am not sure if it is still for sale.

    I am not aware of any Grifos for sale in the US and there are a few potential buyers. There are maybe 2-3 in Europe but the prices are much higher than in the US. One in Germany just sold.

    I'm guessing thats the silver one in the other thread ?

    As an aside a list I was given does not show 081/D as one of the several ex Hailwood cars
