1966 Maserati 3500 GT Coupe (Moretti)

Signifying Moretti’s fundamental change, in 1966, the firm displayed at the important Geneva motor show one of its few automobiles to be based on other than small and medium displacement production cars, this exceptionally pretty 2+2 coupé based on Maserati’s 3500 GT. Its fastback style with sloping tail, influenced by the aerodynamic work of Dr. Kamm, was handsome and sleek. The wide grille with quad headlights was imposing, an effect which was emphasized by the wide, flat air intake scoop on the hood. Its length was emphasized by ribbed sill moldings. In all, the effect was remarkably like that of the Iso Grifo which had made its appearance in 1965.
