Fiat 1200 Cabriolet Moretti

The Fiat 1200 Cabriolet Moretti belongs to the specialist-bodywork projects developed by Carrozzeria Moretti on Fiat mechanical foundations. The project appears in the Archivio Storico Michelotti’s vehicle list, which explicitly identifies a Moretti Fiat 1200 Cabriolet and supports the association with Giovanni Michelotti’s design work.

Moretti was an established Turin-based specialist in compact sports and coachbuilt automobiles, frequently drawing upon components supplied by Fiat. Cabriolet and coupé derivatives formed part of its postwar activity. Period Moretti brochure material preserved by the Moretti Registry provides further context for the Fiat 1200 Cabriolet programme, although it does not establish the identity or build date of every surviving example.

This CI 2.0 record retains the 1961 date from the original catalogue as a legacy reference rather than claiming a verified production start or an individual chassis. Moretti’s coachbuilding role and Michelotti’s documented design association are kept distinct. The number of cars constructed, exact body variations and chassis-specific histories remain open to further research.
