Win a Beck 356!

Here is your chance to win a brand new Beck 356.



Thanks to www.exclusive-motors.com , the PTO of my childrens school is going to raffle off this car. $50 a ticket, 1000 tickets max. Those are great odds and cheap tickets.

Details on the car:

Beautiful Forest Green/Tan/Tan Beck Speedster. A wonderful replica of the 1957 Porsche 356 Speedster made by the same company that makes the Beck Spyder. High quality hand laid fiberglass built onto a full 3" tubular frame chassis. This is NOT build on a VW pan or chassis, it is purpose built from the ground up. As the only authorized Beck Speedster dealer in the Southeast, all of our cars are new and carry a Manufacturers Certificate of Origin.



This particular car has the following:

- 1915 cc, Type 1, 125 hp engine built by CB Performance

- 4 speed manual Type 1 transmission built by Rancho Performance

- 1,450 lbs. curb weight

- Full leather interior

- Heat and defrosters

- Full sized spare tire

- Standard gauges

- Front disc/rear drum brakes

- Speedster Script on both sides and dash

If you want to enter, send a check or money order made out to STARS PTO to:

STARS PTO RAFFLE
STARS SCHOOL
140 Southern Dunes Dr
Vass, NC 28394

Drawing to be April 30th in Southern Pines NC, don't need to be present to win, winner responsible for all taxes, etc etc etc.

Thanks and good luck!

FYI The comma on your link to exclusive-motors is making the link bad.

Oh and thanks I may be buying a ticket.

Hows does a Beck handle as compared to a 356. Also, can a person install a 915 gear box and a 2.4 MFI motor into it ? (have an extra drive train in the garage).

I can't speak for the 356 but I have been for a "ride" (that word is too weak) in a Beck 550 Spyder...

That thing was like unleashing hellfire !!

Awesome !!!
