Bizzarrini GT Strada 5300

First Registration 1968

Fully documented History!

Personally known to us since 1982!

Designed by ex-Ferrari chief engineer Giotto Bizzarrini in 1963, the GT Strada 5300 was launched by

his company in 1964.

The GT Strada 5300 was the most widely available version of the Bizzarrini. The Strada, which adopted a front mid-engine , rearwheel drive layout, was powered by a 327 Chevrolet V8 small block engine displacing 5.4 L and rated at 365 HP. It has Dunlop four-wheel brakes, a Bog-Warner T-10 four-speed manual transmission, de Dion tube rear suspension and a limited slip differential.

The interior offers a contemporary level of comfort with side crank windows, a ventilation system adopted from Fiat and a leatherette – covered dashboard. The engine was intentionally places as far back over the front axle as possible, to improve the weight distribution and handling.

The GT Strada 5300 accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in less than seven seconds and has a maximum speed of 280 km/h.

A total of 133 GT 5300 were produced between 1964 and 1968.

This Bizzarrini GT Strada 5300 was delivered on January 4th 1968 to a Mr. Luis Neri from the Livorno region with the registration number LI 104214. Since then the car and all its owners have been publicly known. The original Italian papers are also present.

In 1982 the chassis no. *290* came to Switzerland to a gentleman known to us. Since that time the chassis no. *290* has had other Swiss owners whose names are all known. We bought this Bizzarrini in 2012 from 19 years of previous ownership and sold the Bizzarrini GT Strada 5300 in 2014 to Germany where it is still part of a remarkable collection.

The Bizzarrini is in a very original condition and has run just 2’600 km since 1982.

If you are interested, we will be happy to send you a detailed list of the owner history with names and registrations.
