Spaghetti Sunday: Iso Grifo

I had no idea what this was when I picked it from a bucket of play worn Tootsie toys. I was drawn to the color and the lines of the car. It turns out this beautiful machine was a design by Bertone. Power was provided by good ole American V8's.  This grand tourer was to compete with the Ferraris and Maseratis of the day.

When I picked this car up the intention was to clean it up but ultimately that plan was scrapped. I opted instead to find a better example to display with it.
