On Tuesday the Iso group were treated to a private tour of the Zagato headquarters in Rho, Italy. We spent time with Andrea Zagato, Marella Rivolta Zagato and Piero Rivolta.

Ugo Zagato founded Zagato in 1919 using airplane design concepts the company moved into automotive design and have been a leader and innovator for decades with a long list of major design accomplishments working with most of the top car companies in the world.

I will publish more on the Zagato visit later when I have a better Internet connection.
We are in Modena, Italy today. I am traveling with Don Meluzio, the president of the Iso & Bizzarrini Owner’s Club. Yesterday we were in Clusone at the best Iso restoration and construction shop in the world, more on that later.
~ this sounds like the experience of a life time. enjoy yourselves and safe travels.
Thank you – this is a very rare opportunity and I plan to share much more on My Car Quest. I am staying up way past my bedtime every night and combined with Internet service that is unpredictable I have not posted as much as I had planned.
