Giovanni Moretti founded the Moretti Motor Company in 1925 to build motorcycles both of his own design and those of other companies. Soon thereafter he began designing and using his engines in tiny microcars well-suited to the European roads of the time. During World War II he developed a variety of utility vehicles, including electric-powered small trucks and multi-passenger cars, finally after the war, turning to conventional passenger cars, the first of which were the Cita and the 600. In 1953, Moretti introduced the versatile 750, which served as the basis for estate wagons, taxis, commercial vehicles, berlinas and coupes—even fielding some successful monoposto racing cars.

In the late 1950s Moretti began basing his vehicles on Fiat chassis and mechanicals in an attempt to lower costs. He focused on adopting the Fiat 750 to a number of configurations, including coupes, sedans, Spyders and estate cars. This charming 1961 Fiat Moretti Multipla 750 is a fine example discovered in a Greek village serving as a tourist shuttle. After being imported to Italy in 2013, it was restored in frame-off fashion, including the replacement of any corroded sheet metal. Typical of this type of vehicle, it is equipped with wicker seats and a canopy-style top, which were refinished as closely as possible to their original appearance.

The mechanicals and electrical system were also renewed, as were the sporty Borrani wire wheels. Festively painted in bright Green with Brown carpeting, this “beach” version of the versatile Multipla is the perfect vehicle for fun in the sun.
