Owned by a guy named Nick, he brought it out to the track day last month and took it for a few laps. He also owns the the ferrari 575M and the white Diablo that were at Driven. Super nice guy.

usually a FG body. either a VW engine or a subaru Ej25 engine. depends on who build it. intermecca in Van supplies both.

edit: intermec doesnt make the spyder. My bad.

The car in question is a Beck car, not intermeccanica. iirc Beck makes their own frames and use VW engines

Beck also uses both the subaru engine and the VW engine (air and water cooled).

People have put subaru engines into Becks, but I'm pretty sure Beck only uses VW motors themselves. Anyways getting OT
