About Intermeccanica: Automobile manufacturer Intermeccanica was founded in Torino, Italy, in 1959 by Frank Reisner. It subsequently moved first to the United States, then to Canada, and is currently headed by Frank’s son, Henry Reisner. During 1976–1979, Automobili Intermeccanica was formed in partnership between Frank Reisner and Tony Baumgartner in Santa Ana, California, to build Speedsters. Tony Baumgartner bought out Frank Reisner’s 50% share of Automobili Intermeccanica and later sold the Speedster project and equipment to Classic Motor Carriages in Florida. Intermeccanica have become as collectible as the original replicas they represent.
