History
Monteverdi launched the 375/4 in 1971 as a four-door car based on the 375 L 2+2 coupe, with Fissore coachwork. The marque's history says buyers could order a partition between the front and rear compartments, a built-in bar and a TV set.
The chassis is described as a rectangular-beam space frame with a De Dion rear axle, and each car was custom-built to individual specification.
