Just bought one online. Looks nice. Good work Mike!!

 

IS A NON-ATTRIBUTED NON-DATED REGISTER-- 15 PAGES SINGLE SPACED--OF ANY INTEREST?
I never bothered to make my own Register since I was priced out early in the game from buying one tho i saw my first Bitsa (the red t-top) in 1970. But recently I found a Register that has no name or date that it was complied, is not copywrited and found a couple cars I bought as a barn finder (Jim Young's car and one of Carey Loftin's) listed so i know at least some of the info is good since I was there and bought them. I don't want to bother to print it out and bind it unless somebody wants it as their own private starting place for recording cars sighted. I tried to look up "Bizzarrini Register" on the net but there's a nasty red warning note that pops up when you do that which implies if you click on it, it will foul up your computer so I don't recommend it, might be booby-trapped. it's not me that's posted this warning.Hell, I'll give a printout free to the next bloke what buys a giclee print (I have ten views incuding Iso Grifo A3/C, (more than any fine artist worldwide).Net address malibucarart at google's address

I love the looks the the Bizzarrini, particularly the spider. BUT: 1) I will never be able to afford an original. 2) I want a driver to take out every day, not a collectable. 3) Since it is a driver, not a show car, I am not particularly concerned with 100% originality; I am more concerned with reliability, handling, and the fun of driving, think restomod. These 3 constraints make me wish there was a decent replica or kit for a reasonable price. Sure, it isn't going to be close to original but I don't really care about that part. For me the goal is to have the style and flavor, not convince others that I have an original Bizzarrini.

Then again, I am one of those crazies that used my 599 as a DD. I take it to HD, the gym, groceries, any excuse to drive it.

 

I wouldn't worry about reliability if the replica mkers fa,ithfully copy the original plans, and think of compared to say a Ferrari V12 of he same vintage how laughably cheap a replacment 327 Chevy engine is. There must be hundreds of such engines in junk yards coast to coast even if most people ouside big cities never heard of Bizzarrini.

I am in Newport, RI this week and the auto museum (in town, not the bigger one) has a Bizzarini 3500 in the showroom. We walked into the museum and I said to my wife "That is THE car in here." There is an AMX and a few other cars of interest but I DO love the Biz

 

I haven't visited this old thread in a long time.
What did Bitzman do to get banned?

 

I haven’t login is a while either. Not sure what Wallace did if said.

Love these Bizzarrinis though.
So beautiful
