Cool Cars You’ve Never Heard Of – Iso Rivolta Lele

I don’t think the Lele qualifies as a shooting-brake, but either way, it’s definitely cool. This sports coupé merged Chevy V8 power with Gandini style – also, it was named after the founder’s daughter-in-law.  Only 285 Leles were built between 1969 and 1974, including two for Iso F1 drivers Howden Ganley and Nanni Galli (“Iso Lele”). I’m really drawn to the sleek profile.  It’s like a cross between the Lamborghini Espada and the Ferrari 308 GT4 – which makes sense because they were also designed by Mr. Gandini.
