Moretti 2500 SS Spider

The Moretti 2500 SS Spider was a four-seat convertible that Giovanni Michelotti styled for Moretti, first shown at the 1962 Turin Motor Show, according to the carrozzieri-italiani.com listing. It was built on the mechanical base of the Fiat 2300 S, which Moretti, described as a small but highly respected Turin-based maker, bored out to 2500 cubic centimetres and fitted with twin Weber carburettors, an Abarth sump and a heavily modified cylinder head. With a five-speed gearbox the page quotes 170 horsepower. The car had disc brakes on all four wheels and Borrani knock-off wire wheels, and the page praises its flowing lines and upscale interior. A coupe version followed a few months later at the Geneva show, and the page calls both cars rare collector items. It names no fuel, no engine class and no survival count.
