by Mike –
This series 2 Iso Grifo is one of the late production cars that came with a Ford engine instead of a Chevy Corvette engine. It is now for sale in Northern California.
Iso Grifo Series 2
Iso Grifos have been increasing in value rapidly recently.
This model has the special Iso Grifo hood scoop.
The owner is an active member of the Iso & Bizzarrini Owner’s Club and is a friend of mine.
~ many readers will have viewed this on BaT earlier today. some voiced their hate for the hood scoop, variations of which Mike deftly covered in his Nov. 13, ’12 article ‘Iso Grifo Hood Scoop – The Most Unusual Ever’. i spent a good deal of time comparing the hoods and find the “pagoda” style to be unoffensive when viewed in profile, though a bit abrupt from straight-on. Grifo4me said in reply to my remark that ‘the taller version is not as attractive’,’Not when your looking at it from behind the wheel.’ well put, sir.
Thanks for your support Scot and for helping to educate readers of BaT.
Based on many of senseless comments on BaT, I’m afraid education of that audience is time lost.
