older Intermeccanica relica versus newer

Jane, how old is the older version? Is it a Roadster? Henry and his father made improvements every year and actually from car to car. The best source for information is Henry Reisner.

There is a huge difference between the 93 versus the 2003, you really should call Henry and he can tell you the differences in what he did then versus now.

If you want roll-up windows in your car, go for a convertible D replica instead of a Speedster. The difference resides mainly in the windshield; the ones on Convertible D's lend themselves to roll up window retrofit much easier.

I want roll up windows in my replica, a must, I am considering a much older 356A model made by Interrmecnica, can anyone tell me of any changes that this older w]version ,ight be missing I just started looking for a conv D replica versus a speedster so I contact IM and Henry is actually the person who gave me the info. on this particular one for sale, so I guess you guys are right I sould ask him, I just need the rool up windows, I like the higher windshield, but I don't have $30k to spend and it's hard to find them. Any ideas?

Jane: I believe that all of the convertible D

Look on the Samba... http://www.thesamba.com/vw/ there are two older Intermeccanica Roadsters (Vert Ds) for sale. Also go to http://www.jstefano.com/ he is a dealer for Intermeccanica on the east coast and has a few used Roadsters for sale. There is a nice (tube frame) 2000 Intermeccanica Roadster in Burgandy and Tan for sale with low miles (less than 3500 miles). And finally, I agree with Dale, call Henry Reisner (owner Intermeccanica). He can give you the info you need, including cars for sale. I would call Henry before buying anything.

To add to Gordon's info, Intermeccanica Speedsters have roll up (power) side windows from about 2002-03 on.

If you want to live on the wild side, there is a low mileage 2003 Intermeccanica Speedster for sale at J Stefano and on E-bay with only 3 days left- http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Porsche-356-GS-GT-1959-Intermeccanica-Porsche-GS-GT-Replica-Speedster-356_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQcategoryZ6428QQitemZ4594943430QQrdZ1QQsspagenameZWDVW It was featured in the September 2003 issue of Excellence and is loaded with an RS spec'd Porsche 2.7L and is truly one of a kind... a replica of a 59 GT in Stone Gray. This is a beautiful car.

You should probably go to the factory where they are built before buying one....LOL

Why doesn't anyone suggest this on a used car?
