Moretti 750 Tour De Monde

The Moretti 750 Tour De Monde was a small Moretti car that Giovanni Michelotti designed and that was unveiled at the 1957 Turin Motor Show, according to the carrozzieri-italiani.com listing. The page tells it as a tribute to the round-the-world journey of two journalists in a Moretti 600 Giardinetta, about 120,000 kilometres between 1952 and 1955, during which Moretti had the engine sealed before the start to prove its durability. The Tour De Monde carried a refined 750 cubic centimetre engine and a sleek, elegant body, and the page calls it a symbol of the meticulous engineering that Moretti Motors stood for. It adds that the company later faded from prominence. The listing names no fuel, no engine class, no body style in a sentence and no survival status.
