Sorry - I meant 797 Rivoltas built. 317 is the number often quoted for Leles, but that figure includes quite a number of unfinished (sometimes...
Aventino: 412 Grifos built altogether (including 90 7-Litres) 33 RHD (including 4 7-Litres) 787 Rivoltas (24 RHD imported to UK) 192 Fidias...
"Claus Larsen" (if he exists, of course) has just had an interesting letter published in the Lost and Found section of the current Classic &...
I see very few similarities, really, except that they are both Italian-built barchettas with a US V8 amidships. The de Tomaso has a central spine...
That looks like the picture from the "Dream Cars" calendar of 1993. I think it is probably #283, later discovered to have started life as #216.
Yes, Jimmie, it is alive and well and has been owned since 1998 by a very old friend of mine, who used to also have another which he had owned...
That's a good question! And one I don't really know the answer to. As you may know, the fibreglass body of at least the first P538 (maybe the...

As I understand it, several years ago the rights to use the name Bizzarrini (ie Trademark) were sold to another group, who intend (intended?) to...
Yes, what IS it??? Can we be shown a chassis number? I believe it is probably built on an Iso chassis - but by whom, and when? It appears to have...
Many thanks, Andreas! perhaps we can pin this one down yet! Do you remember about what year(s) this car was owned by these gentlemen?
It may be that Hugh had that number on #297 at one time. But it is now on the car he kept - #305. #305 was previously 490 SYE. #297 went to Italy...
I don't think anyone who has read all the postings on this thread could possibly say I want anything more than to discover the truth about...

#302 owned by Luigi Macaluso. Overall winner in the Cartier Style et Luxe at Goodwood Festival of Speed 2004. Another pic (my Grifo 7L in the...
It is #106/D, owned for many years by Charles Howsden of Billingham. He died a few years ago, and his widow now has it for sale.
