Here is an ebay 904 kit car. It appears at first glance to be well built?? I may not be seeing something obvious? I can see a nice six just sitting in the back of this car, or Sean can put his Cayenne V8 back there. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif)
I know Beck brought one to Dunkles last year, not sure where they are on production.

very nice, we could have lots of fun with something like that. It's at $13k now and hasn't met the reserve, i figure it will take another $25k to finish it after it is bought so it's way outta my budget range. Bummer. I'd really like to have one of those.

Craig,

I been watching this one since it started. I've been in love with the 904 since seeing my first one.

I parked next to a real one the summer of 1999. The owner is local and owned the car 30-some yrs. Really interesting story & bought it cheap before prices went sky high.

I am thinking I should bid on this one. I wonder how high it will go.

Tom
Happy Holiday's to Camp-914

Tom Good morning. Well if you did get that 904, shipping would be easy than it would for those of us on the left coast. And you are not that far away that you could at least drive down and take a eyeball look. After the snow and ice melt (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif)
I have a bid on a 1965 Mustang convertible, a local car. Nicely restored as a driver. Waiting to find out if one of the family members wants it bad enough to pay more for it from the executor. I will send pics if I end up buying the car.
Happy Holidays to you and the family.

One of my friends here in Vegas just got one of those 904's. It comes complete except for the motor and tranny. I will get some photos for you guys to (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/drooley.gif) over. It is top quality all the way. The price for the roller was $30K.

I believe this is the guy who ended up with the Beck 904 molds and such. A complete car was listed on ebay a few months ago, but don't know if it sold. I spoke to him and he said he wasn't sure if he was going to restart production or just sell the works. Car looked terrific, but I didn't have the guts to do it.

Howard & John,

Thanks for the follow-up pictures. I didn't know Beck sold the molds. These kits would be the only way some of us could own one. Give us a report if you find out more.

I keep collecting parts for my next 914-GT project & this 904 kit could replace my future project.
