MOMO is a leading Italian car accessories and light alloy wheel company, founded by gentleman driver Gianpiero Moretti in 1964. It was precisely in that year, that Moretti commissioned a craftsman to make a custom-made steering wheel for his racing car. This special steering wheel - the first MOMO steering wheel in history - had a thicker and better grip than the other racing steering wheels. The drivers of the other teams, intrigued by Moretti's steering wheel, asked for an identical one for their own cars, and had the opportunity to test its qualities. After some time, Ferrari Formula 1 driver John Surtees also had it installed in his own single-seater. Surtees' Ferrari, equipped with the MOMO steering wheel, was the car that won the world title at the end of the championship. It was then that Moretti had the intuition to turn his passion into an industrial reality, and started producing the famous sports steering wheels.
The Type of the car is a code that the producer assigns to each vehicle in order to distinguish it from similar models.
