Cool to see BMW mated with Aston mated with Mustang. It works.

Whatever the sell price, double it to put the interior right.

What? I know a shop that could do that for less than $5k. Even less if you don't care if it's original looking.

Guigiaro designed it in a time when Italian design was exploding with brilliance. Of course they pulled it off.

Isos are pretty neat cars.

In reply to ReverendDexter:

From www.ultimatecarpage.com:

"As his next project Rivolta thought of a fast but comfortable sportscar. Not willing to sacrifice money on the development of his own engine, Rivolta approached General Motors and struck a deal to be supplied with the 5.4 liter from the Corvette. For the design of the body he contacted Bertone and the construction of the chassis was assigned to Giotti Bizarrini, just having been released from his job at Ferrari.. Interestingly at the time Ferrari was still applying leaf sprung rear live axles to his cars, but for Iso Bizarrini developed a Dion rear axle with coil springs, with the disc brakes attached to the differential. Independent front suspension was by two triangles. "

I see it's now met reserve. Seriously, I'd be all over that if it was close enough to look at in person. What a perfect combination of Italian design and good oold American V-8 power and simplicity!
