The Iso Rivolta IR 300, unveiled at the 1962 Turin Motor Show, marked a significant turning point for Iso, a company previously known for microcars and motorcycles. Under the leadership of Renzo Rivolta and engineer Giotto Bizzarrini, this grand tourer was designed to compete with top luxury brands. Its design, penned by Giorgetto Giugiaro at Bertone, masterfully blends elegance and sportiness. The car was powered by a 5.4-liter Chevrolet V8 engine producing 295 horsepower, allowing the IR 300 to reach an impressive top speed of 218 km/h. This fusion of Italian styling and American engineering made the Iso Rivolta both a refined and powerful car, suitable for long-distance cruising as well as sporty performance.

The Iso Rivolta IR 300 we present was delivered new by the Belgian importer, Navarobel NV, on August 9, 1969. It is one of just five units delivered by this dealer. Still equipped with its original 5.4-liter Chevrolet V8 engine and manual gearbox, this example remained in Belgium until 2020, when it was acquired by its current owner, a South African collector.
The current owner undertook a comprehensive restoration at his personal workshop, Dragon Classiche. The body was stripped down, sandblasted, and repainted in its original "Indianapolis Silver Poly" color (paint code "3005"). The black leather interior was also fully refurbished. The engine, gearbox, and electrical system were overhauled, with the restoration thoroughly documented in a detailed dossier, including photos. During the restoration, an electronic ignition was installed, and the brakes and suspension were upgraded.
Since arriving in France, the car has enjoyed the sunny climate of the French Riviera, where its owners have taken full advantage of its blend of Italian design and powerful American performance. The Iso Rivolta IR 300 truly combines the best of both worlds.
