I know Chuck Beck. He's a salty old school guy...but quite likable. Here's a shot of one of his cars made up to be a James Dean "look-a-like".

I don't know Chuck Beck but I met him at Laguna Seca a few years ago when he was showing off his "new" Lister that he was gonna manufacture (I think that came to pass) and he was very approachable, we talked for quite a while and he let lots of folks sit in the cars( he had a Spyder there too). I thought he was a good guy, and I think he has great taste in the cars he has chosen to replicate...just wish I could make my self spend the money to own one.
