The Moretti 750 Sport Barchetta, which the carrozzieri-italiani.com listing also calls the 750 Sport Spider in its text, was an open sports car that Moretti coachbuilt in 1954 to a design by Giovanni Michelotti. The page says Moretti was then known for lightweight sports cars that stressed performance and style, and that the car reflected a post-war interest in both competition and elegant design. Michelotti gave it clean lines and a streamlined silhouette, and the chassis used lightweight materials for agility. It was powered by an inline-four engine, with a suspension set up for responsive handling, and the page says production was limited. The listing adds that surviving examples are recorded in private collections and institutional archives. It names no fuel and no engine class.
