It’s a mid-engined Super Coupe w/a 5 Speed Automatic, Coddington Rudge repros, fancy leather and carpet.

So, yeah. Special. That’s what Lane’s should have gone for.

Look, I love what Beck builds and who they are personally. I have never seen support such as they show on this site regularly and by all reports, to those that buy from them. Even those that don't!

But personally, I just don't think I've ever seen a replica Speedster that I think is worth $100K (double use of "I"). The beauty in these little cars was simplicity, affordability and even the opportunity to wrench even a bit as individual skill dictated while never worrying about parking it on a public street or having to insure it like anything approaching the real thing.

The hobby has slipped just a bit off kilter imo but that's OK; big tent and all that.
