that's all i have to say about it. if, and that's a BIG *IF* it has a 3.6L in it, i'd keep it and put some real fenders on that "thing".

that nose and flares look just plain butt-ugly!

of course, that's just my very personal, humble opinion ...

Well the gun must be full of blanks, cuz I ain't buying. Looked at it today. Yes it's that blue one in the pictures, but disassembled. After sitting outside, water got in thru the carbs. The motor (2.7) has since been worked on but not reassembled. The paint had started to bubble, so it was taken down to metal and reworked to close up the gaps. However since then it has sat in a barn and there is surface rust everywhere. IMHO it would need to media blasted. It does have some good points; the front flares and nose are one piece as is the rear flare/bumper. These are off the car and look fairly easy to reattach or you could put GT flares over the cutouts. There is a factory oil tank in nice shape, a Patrick engine mount, Gotti Wheels, GT style engine lid, headers and a room full of interior/weatherstrip/misc. parts.
I was hoping that it was closer to what the picture shows. I could have kept some of the drivetrain pieces and sold off the rolling chassis/body to someone who had to have the look. But now I don't think the roller would bring enough to justify the purchase of the pieces. Or I could hope he gets desperate and drops his price. If someone out there HAS to have this, let me know and I can relay info. It has potential and would be unique, But I have a real project (74 lightweight Carrera) to contend with.

Hey T.C.,
Your car looks great. How is the 911 coming?
I heard that Beck was not related to the Beck of California. Jason ran into a guy out there and he said there was no relation.
I remember that car from many moons ago. It reminds me of one of those Testarossa body kits that people put on Fiero's.
If you run across any good deals let me know. There aren't any here.
Later,
Chad

I've been too busy working.
We just closed on a new house today so I hope I can start having fun again.
I sold my '72 but I still have a roller and I'm looking at a couple of finished cars so that I can enjoy myself and work on one at the same time. I stripped my roller down to resemble your (Paul) car. I'm not sure what I'm going to with it yet.

Chad, Glad to hear you are doing well. As far as Beck is concerned, everyone (White, Bruns, Pannacione, Scooter, etc) told me he was the Beck replica guys son and that Dave is now working for his dad. But what the hell do I know? The 914-6 is more or less finished and the Carrera is in the bodyshop.
