Properly Restored, 1971 Intermeccanica Italia Coupe For Sale

I have come across a rare performance car for sale in Tempe, Arizona. It is a Canadian-made automobile by Intermeccanica, assembled in Torino, Italy. The car is called the Intermeccanica Italia. Under its hood is an American muscle engine.

This 1971 model boasts a total of 24250 miles on its odometer. It has undergone a proper restoration, which is evident from the photos available. The car is in excellent condition and is usable for everyday driving. It still retains its original powerplant, drivetrain, body frame, interior, and cosmetics.

A rare 1969 Intermeccanica Italia Spyder with an American drivetrain is being offered for sale on Craigslist in California for $129999. The Intermeccanica Italia Spyder is a classic Italian sports car that was manufactured by a private automotive industry founded by Frank Reisner in 1959. This particular model is a fully restored version, retaining its original engine, transmission, body, and chassis. It is a perfect example of the Intermeccanica Spyder that still exists today and is looking for a new home.

The Intermeccanica Italia Spyder was a dream come true for Frank Reisner and his wife Paula, who were passionate car enthusiasts. Established in 1959, the Intermeccanica cars combined Italian artistry with an American powertrain. After a series of name, ownership, and engineering changes within the company, they began production of the Italia Spyder in 1967. The first Italians were exported to the United States in 1968. These cars were unlike anything else on the market and quickly gained the attention of discerning American car lovers. However, with limited production and a hefty price tag of $8,500, only the well-off could afford them. To many aficionados, the Intermeccanica Italia Spyder was an automotive masterpiece.
