Moretti 600 Spider Accossato

Automobiles

The Moretti 600 Spider Accossato was an open car on the Moretti 600 that the carrozzieri-italiani.com listing dates to 1950 and credits to the coachbuilder Accossato rather than to Moretti, which sets it apart from most Moretti bodies. The page says it was shown at the Turin Auto Show and presents it as part of a shift in post-war Italian design toward sporty and appealing cars. Accossato built a streamlined body of lightweight construction, and the page speaks of attention to aerodynamic efficiency. The car is described as powered by an inline-four engine that balanced power and efficiency. The listing adds that surviving examples are recorded in private collections and institutional archives. It names no fuel, no engine class and no formal body style.
