wiring diagram for intermeccanica speedster

I just found an old intermeccanic speedster. The wiring is shot. Does anyone know
where I can get a schematic?

Thanks,
Tullio

Welcome to the Madness, Tullio!

Depending on the age of the car and the condition of the wires/terminals/grounds, you might be well served to remove the entire harness and go with one from Vintage Speedsters.

If you do what so many here have done on their first attempts, which is to splice bits and pieces in alongside old, you're in for a long and painful process throughout your ownership of the car.

They're simple enough to do. If you have to have the IM schematic, I'm pretty sure Henry at Intermeccanica can help you with a diagram -- which wouldn't be terribly different from the CMC diagram in the knowledge section of this site -- on a really old IM. I'm betting that if the car's old enough that the wires are shot, they're probably not where they were when it was built.

The Vintage route is fairly common in this hobby for cars such as yours.

As Cory mentioned, contact Henry at Intermeccanica.

Thanks, I'll contact Henry.
I have built many 356 motors and cars.It is great going back and working on V.W.'s
again.This site is very helpful.

Just curious, Tullio. How old is your IM ? Mine was a kit sold in 1978 and on the road for the first time in 1983. From 1983 to 2010 it only had 8,500 miles put on it.

Dave,
It's friday and I will check on the year on monday when I get back to my shop.
I think the car is about 1976.

You may be able to use the "Roadster Wiring Diagram" from Henry's site, but it may depend on what year your car was made.

I have a suppier that makes good connectors and cotacts The connecter holder are nicer and reliable
You can go to their site and shop for what you need . American Autowire.com

They use a lot of the Packard style contacts good quality and a close match to VW . Also have some good relay kits and fuse boxes

If your going to make your own harness Start at a NAPA store in both their Automotive and Marine books offer more custom colors and gauge thicknesses..

Thanks,
The roadster schematic is good.The only issue is this car has an alternator.I'm sure
I will be able to figure it out.

If you want to make your own wiring harness; or if you want to see the difference in generator vs alternator wiring, go to "library" on this site. The first item in the library is a 4-page schematic that
I made and used for my build. It isn't from any of the recognized manufacturers, but it is accurate and works. It has more "internal"
component details than most of the manufacturers diagrams.

Thanks Brian,
I will check out that site. I am a happy man I rebuilt the motor that came in the car,
frozen and full of water. I couldn't find 88m.m. pistons so I went to 90.5.Started it today
it sounded good and had a perfect idle.
