Giotto Bizzarini had worked with Alfa Romeo and Ferrari on development of new models. Forming his own company, Autostar, in 1962 he worked with Renzo Rivolta producing the Iso Rivolta and the Iso Grifo A3C models. The company was renamed Prototipi Bizzarini and went on to produce several models, including the 5300 Corsa. Due to the complicated deal with Iso, Bizzarrini left in 1964 and founded Societa Prototipi Bizzarrini (Bizzarrini S.p. A), which produced some 140 cars through 1969 at its Livorno factory.

The 5300 Corsa shares the Iso Grifo A3C body a chassis powered by a 327 Corvette V8 and is badged as a Bizzarini.
The bodies were styled by Giugiaro at Bertone in collaboration with Renzo Rivolta. Bizzarini was keen to take the car racing and by 1963 had convinced Rivolta to finance the racing programme. The result was a sportier version of the Grifo produced in two forms of trim, the luxury version dubbed A3L the sports version A3c (Competition) Entered for the 1964 Sebring 12 hour and Le Mans 24 hour were it would go on to capture fourth overall and first in class. Around 22 A3C were constructed but due to disagreements Rivolta and Bizzarini parted company in 1965.
A deal was struck allowing Bizzarini to continue production but without the use of its name, the new name was to be the Bizzarini 5300GT of which around 50 further cars were produced, The cars are almost identical but with small design details changed by Carrozzeria BBM such as the door handles, and front and rear signals and lights
