True that. There might be someone from that area knowledgeable in the Beck's though, you never know.

Given it is a 912 motor and VW transmission, it might make sense to try a PPI from the reference above (if the car is indeed in Hermosa Beach and not in Kentucky). That is where most of the money is in the car...the rest is VW aftermarket for the most part.

If the car is in Hermosa Beach, you will have more spyder knowledgeable people who can help out (including Larry, the moderator of www.spyderclub.com • Index page) who lives east of there.

If you are serious about the car, then find the location and ask for more photos and a shot of the serial number plate. The "Beck" is still in business as Special Editions, Inc., as they took over from Chuck Beck. They seem very nice and helpful. Maybe they can run down the build history:

BECK Speedster, BECK Spyder, BECK Roadster and BECK GTS
