Best of France and Italy.

That is an ISO Grifo with the rare Targa top. Italian car with a Corvette 327. The strange thing about this one is that it has wire wheels. Most of them had (Campagnolo?) alloy wheels.
I've never seen one with a targa top before! I like the Euro-American hybrid cars like ISO, DeTomaso, Monteverde, Jensen, etc.

That top does seem rare. In the picture it seems a little deceiving; almost looks like there is a center bar, is it one complete targa top or two "T-tops"?

I like that engine/transmission test stand.

Does anyone know who's X this is? I'd like to know what the tire size is. Thanks:

At first glance they look like Borrani wire wheels. They still list them for the Iso for those who don't mind shelling out $2,250 per wheel. There used to be Borrani Wheel Service, a tiny shop on Lincoln Blvd. in Venice, now long gone that never failed to have a very interesting collection of customer cars out front during the '70-80s.

The rims are 14 inch Panasports I purchase from Midwest/Bayless and the tires are Yokohama 185/55 R14 S.Drive tires. The front is lowered 1 1/2 inch and the back is lowered 1/2 inch. so it fits nicely under the wheel well.
