Moretti
Moretti, a name often whispered in the same breath as Fiat, represents a fascinating chapter in Italian automotive history. Founded in 1925, the Turin-based coachbuilder initially focused on commercial vehicles before transitioning to bespoke bodies for various chassis, including Alfa Romeo and Lancia. However, it was their close relationship with Fiat that truly defined Moretti.
They crafted stylish and often sporty bodies for Fiat's mass-produced models, from the Topolino to the 128. While not always revolutionary in design, Moretti's creations offered a distinct flair, often incorporating unique details and a touch of Italian exuberance. Their racing successes, particularly in the 1950s, further cemented their reputation. Though production ceased in the late 1980s, Moretti's legacy endures as a testament to Italian coachbuilding ingenuity.
