Many thanks for the generosity of the SOC forum who prepared me to make an informed purchase of my (new to me) IM Convertible D after 18 months of lurking.
2110 with IRS and disks at all corners - a dream come true. 1st 200 miles garnered a ton of smiles per hour.

Welcome to the "Madness"!
Thanks, it was a voluntary admission to the asylum...
Woohoo already has rain hats too. Love the interior with the Ivory - just the right patina.
You really can't go wrong with an Intermeccanica. And the madness is less, as you won't be fiddling with it as much.
Good purchase.
I ditched the rain hats, I mean who needs them in Seattle?
That was a great buy on that car. Well done!
Nice score on the IM! Great looking car. Welcome to The Madness! 
Welcome to the madness.
Pretty much everyone of us voluntarily committed ourselves to the asylum!
And welcome to the IM family. Enjoy the ride!
Congrats on the car BK, I will keep my eye out for you on the roads.
I live across the lake from you in Kirkland.
Nice car, What vintage is it? I have a 1989 that looks really similar. I picked mine up in Tacoma last year.
Hi Wiseguy, it's a 1999. I had an appointment to see the car you bought in Tacoma and you beat me to it - it is a beautiful example of an IM judging from the pictures and description of the previous owner.
All the best
From one Nuckels to another, welcome to toy car ownership!
BTW, do you have proper name or should we address you as Bloody?
Thanks Terry, I'll respond to Michael unless it is associated with past gambling debts.
Sorry to beat you to the punch on that one but it appears your patience may have paid off, that looks to be a nicer example. I have had to do quite a bit of work to it and still have more to do. Had an intake spring break causing a fire in the carb which caused some damage to the paint and top PLUS engine leaks, some crappy wire "upgrades" and to top it off apparently the PO tried to die the top green which got everywhere I didnt notice that until I got it home. Blinded by the madness is what I'm chalking it up to. I replaced the seats with Scat Procar series 90 models....love'em!
Curious what you paid for yours, If you don't mind disclosing that.
Congrats, your only 2 hours south of the dream maker so you can get service from IM directly when you really need it. Ray

Good to know. 
Those guys really build beautiful cars. It sure doesnt look 16 years old. A lot of neat little tricks you can see like courtesy lights with doors pin switches. Nice!

Well, at least some guys don't fiddle with them. Then, there is my brother Ron...
what about Stan, he is quite the tinkerer.

Yes, Stan is the Leader of Intermeccania fiddling.
Yep. Stan is just an old time fiddler from way back...
Fiddler on the roof at that, it's all frickin flat out there where he lives!
I missed this car by a day too.
i'm in CA, so tried to set up an inspection, but I was not able to get anyone to go.
then called the next morning to buy it without an inspection and Evan said that a local guy bought it last night.
i am still kicking myself.. But hope you are enjoying the car.
Farsea, my patience paid off as I am sure yours will!
Good luck finding exactly what you are looking for.
