Provenance
Specialist Notes
In 1951 two identical Moretti 750s carried out the 1st Rallye Algiers - Cape Town, across the whole African continent, where they ranked 1st and 2nd in class. From the car, the Moretti derives in a limited series, an elegant coupé entirely built in Moretti and designed under the supervision of Giovanni Michelotti, equipped with the 750 cc single-cam engine. Two Alger - Le Cap will also race the XXth Mille Miglia. The car up for auction is a very rare pre-series example from 1954, which was exhibited at the Turin Salone Internazionale dell’auto. It had a single owner in its first 4 years of life and "forgotten" for the next 50 years; the heirs will then sell it in 2016 to the collector who has undergone a complete restoration.
