Italian company Zagato helped a Russian student from Moscow State University of Industrial and Applied Arts revive Italian brand Iso Rivolta.

Known as the Iso Rivolta Marella, the Italian supercar is based on the underpinnings of the Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 – meaning that under the hood is a 6.2L V8 LS9 supercharged engine making 638-hp with a peak torque of 595 lb-ft. No word on 0 to 60 mph timings but we don’t expect to be anything shy of 3.5 seconds.

As of right now the Iso Rivolta Marella exists only as a scaled down model; however, we’d like to see it be produced some day.
