For years, he successfully participated in many events such as the Trofeo Nastro Rosso, NKHTGT, Le Mans Legends, etc. with multiple podium finishes and wins. In 2014 he decided to move to another project and sold the car to another famous pair of racing drivers: Tarek & Galal Mahmoud. At that time #0245 was handed to Historic Automobile with the gifted Simon Blake. A further 100K€ was spent on the car to bring it to top level racing. The work done included a fresh Mathwall FIA engine, new fuel cells, new brake calipers, Aeroquip hoses, Vbox kit, etc. Under Cedar Racing Team colors, the car participated in various historic races including the exclusive Goodwood Members Meeting in 2016. The current owner purchased the car in 2017 and raced it in Peter Auto series. Firstly maintained by Gipimotor, the car joined the French specialist Yvan Mahe at Equipe Europe. #0245 benefited a meticulous maintenance and a comprehensive race preparation with no expense saved. Rare period Campagnolo brake calipers and a new Warrior engine delivering 460Hp were fitted. New rear axle, fine-tuned gearbox… From then the car proved to be one the quickest and the most reliable Bizzarrini on track and legally prepared in compliance with the FIA and Peter Auto regulations. #0245 is located in our showroom in Paris, and is sold with a valid FIA HTP, a complete history file and is road registered in France.
