Our Take:
- The 1959 Fiat Moretti 750 Tour De Monde is a rare gem from a bygone era of Italian craftsmanship. Moretti, a small coachbuilder, produced these vehicles in limited numbers, giving each one a unique flair that’s hard to come by nowadays. This car is a snapshot of post-war Italian ingenuity, when small displacement cars were all the rage.
- Originally, this model was known for its stylish and lightweight design, ideal for the winding roads of Italy. The "Tour De Monde" is a special version aimed at travelers—a nod to road trips driven by the spirit of adventure (and maybe some vino!). Its Spyder Convertible body style adds a dash of open-air thrill, perfect for sunny drives reminiscent of a Fellini film.
- Under the hood lies a modest but spirited engine, typical of the era's emphasis on efficiency over brute strength. The Moretti 750's small but capable motor might not win any drag races, but it’ll surely bring a smile during leisurely Sunday drives. Engine parts can be a bit of a treasure hunt, though, so be ready for an Indiana Jones-style adventure if restoration's your game.
- This particular car having been stored for over 45 years means it’s a time capsule, albeit a bit dusty. Being labeled a "project car" is like a siren call for enthusiasts who love breathing new life into classic beauties—think of it as rescuing a damsel in distress. And with its Californian roots, it’s likely faced less body rust, thanks to the dry climate—a true blessing for restorers.
