THE OVERVIEW Offered for an appreciating new owner is this ultra rare classic 1967 Iso Rivolta IR 300 sport coupe! Finished in gleaming red over black leather hides, this elegant 2+2 coupe was designed by Giorgetto Giugiaro and chassis builder Bertone and developed by Renzo Rivolta and first presented at the Torino Auto Show in 1962. This very special unique restored numbers matching California black license plate gem has been driven just over 77,500 miles since new. Yes the five-digit odometer still works and the mileage is strongly believed to be true and actual though I cannot 100% verify this. This three-owner Italian beauty was owned by, shown at and sold at Quail Lodge Pebble Beach in 1993 by developer John Leach. It was also personally signed by Piero Rivolta in 2012 just prior to my purchase. With that said, this beauty sports the 300 horsepower 327 cubic inch small block Corvette engine mated to the factory automatic transmission, one of approximately 100 total factory equipped with only two pedals. This particular example sports the push button start, new 1941 Cadillac leather front seat upholstery, 15" Dayton knock-of wire wheels with excellent rubber, new Ferrari brakes with Mercedes Benz hydraulic booster, refinished wood steering wheel, all new rubber, all mechanicals completely sorted including new window motors, Sony cassette stereo and original specifications sheet from 1967. I would not hesitate driving this car to L.A. right now....though I would definitely motor the scenic route! This stunning classic coupe is offered here with low reserve and would be a superb addition to any collection. Sale includes free delivery anywhere in California. PLEASE CALL 650-350-8828 FOR QUESTIONS, TEST DRIVES AND/OR MECHANICAL INSPECTIONS. THE BODY AND TRIM The exterior of this in excellent 99.99% near-concourse show condition overall. The restored red paint finish gleam, the original chrome and trim is in excellent condition. There are only a few minor cosmetic imperfections including miscellaneous rock nicks, scratches and paint checking on a couple of body sections. I would rate the overall exterior condition a solid 8.0 to 8.5 on a scale of 1-10. THE INTERIOR As I hope is articulated in the photos here, the interior of this car is in excellent condition overall with all controls and gauges in perfect working order [except the amp meter]. The front seat leather has been freshened new with the remainder of the vinyl in very good condition with only minimal wear on some of the interior surfaces.
