Thanks for posting this.  This was literature form the start of Gen 2 from 1988 or 1989.  I still have a few brochures form the 2nd "batch" of Gen 1 a few years earlier than this, and the very first (1983) was just plain printed sheets with pricing and maybe 1 or 2 small photos.  I believe I have some of the mid 80's Gen 1 version tucked away as well.  When "Vintage" Spyders came about, Chuck changed the literature and dropped the word Vintage from the advertising and it just became the Beck 550 Spyder.  Then many years later, Porsche trademarked the number 550, so it simply became the Beck Spyder.
