1973 Fiat 126 Minimaxi (Moretti)

First shown in 1970, the Minimaxi cars (based first on the Fiat 500 and later the Fiat 126) were to become the mainstay of Moretti production in the 1970's.

The design was a jeep-like car, complete with forward folding front windscreen, no roof and no doors. A folding canvas roof and canvas doors were available as options should they be required. From 1973 the 126 based Minimaxi became available. The design remained essentially the same, noticeable differences being the addition of a rollover hoop behind the front seats, and the adoption of the square headlights from the 126 (rather than the round 500 units). For the 126 based version there was also offered a hard-top and metal doors with opening windows. For those who required it, a more comprehensive instrument cluster (including revcounter) could also be specified.
