He did actually own a speedster though. It was what he had before the 550. Prior to that it was an MG TD. At the time he does, he had a Lotus X on order.
As far as owning a speedster goes, I would prefer the SAS 356 cabriolet. Good seats, a/c power windows(as opposed to side curtains) and most importantly, a 170-200 hp subaru mid-engine and 4 wheel disk brakes on a real custom frame not a vw. $35k
Let's put some uncomfortable racing seats in a car that will never see the track. The owner will drive it for 15 minutes and then beg 'get me outta here'. Folks when you build a car, put in some comfortable seats please. This is why these cars get flipped by so many people. THEY ARE UNCOMFORTABLE.
No question about Beck being the best out there
Ideal for spring & fall motoring! The BECK 550 Spyder another beauty.
Not gonna lie, you are one hell of a salesman
Appreciate it, been doing this since 2000!

I have never seen many pictures of these but damn I didn't know they where this good.
James Dean was killed while driving a 550 spider. This car is a 356 speedster.

James dean owned a 356 porsche and started to race then he sell that porsche to buy the speeedster 550
There are 3 factory in Brazil that build this amazing car, some of them are sent to Europe and 🇺🇸
one of the best on market
I would love this car if I wasn't 6' 3" tall.
Since you asked, Reutter is Roy-ter, not Root-ter
Hi! Ballpark price for this unit please?
its 40k
Super!
Is this available in canada?
Cool car! Body fiberglass or
Metal?
Fiberglass
Why can’t these builders put the ignition on the left? Is some Porsche proprietary thing?
Hard to say! I can tell you that we have had several GTO's that have ignition on the left but I don't know that I have seen it in any other cars.
Sure went over the engine spec quickly. Can’t say vw ?
There's nothing wrong with a VW motor in there, theses cars are extremely light. What did you expect a small block? SMH
james dean never drove this model
Mmm, that's not the Porsche style that James Dean is famous for driving (550)
So not '57

Stick with muscle cars Dude. James Dean drove, and met his death, in a 550 Spyder Porsche.
