Following the unveiling of the Bizzarrini 5300 GT Corsa Revival earlier this year, the first of 24 production cars has now left the marque’s dedicated UK facility.

Each car in the Revival series represents an authentic interpretation of the 5300 GT Corsa. Built using the original blueprints, utilising components from original suppliers, and with the input of experts originally involved in the 5300 GT project, it is as representative of the original as possible, while conforming to modern safety standards. To ensure the car looks exactly as it would have on the starting line at Le Mans in 1965, the Bizzarrini team became automotive archaeologists, with even the racing red shade of paint colour-matched for the Revival to create Rosso Corsa Bizzarrini 222.

The hand-built vehicles use a lightweight single piece composite body over a steel frame, giving an overall weight in the region of 1230kg. Independent rear suspension to Giotto’s Corsa specification and all-round disc brakes are paired with a period-specific 5,300 cubic centimeter V8 with Weber 45 DCOE carburettors developing over 400 horsepower to give a power to weight ratio comparable with a modern-day supercar.
