Newbie here.

Hello all;
Looking to p/u a speedster in the not to distant future and hope to gain some knowledge here to that end. Thinking I'd like tube frame with mucho HP. Prefer to p/u somebody's cherished baby.Open to suggestions...
Currently busy playing with my new 997tt so not in too big of a hurry, but you never know.

I just got mine delivered yesterday, so I finally consider myself officially in the club. Therefore, I get to be the first one to say "Welcome to the Madness"

Dang, Tom, you're fast.

Welcome Scott. I recommend doing quite a bit of research before you jump in. Most forums on this board have a sticky thread at the top labeled "Ready for a Speedster Replica? - (Everything you need to know)" about getting a Speedster. Mandatory reading, I think.

Agree with that for sure. Also good to know what hoops you may have to jump through ,in the state where you live ,to get it on the road.

Scott,

So it will be a Beck or Intermeccanica if you want tube frame. Check with Henry I think he has or had two previously owned cars for sale. This is the time of the year most cars sell so good luck. If you want "MUCHO" horse power and the ultimate ride then look here:

BTW I am a bit biased as Henry is building my new IM-6 now.

Scott,
Check out my Beck in the Classifieds. Not mucho HP, but enough.

Thanks for the welcome guys!

For me, it seems to be either Beck or IM, but that could change.
Planning on checking out some cars at the Morro Bay gathering next month. I'm heading down to Sants Barbara with several other 997 Turbo owners and possibly a Beck and a 904 and we hope to swing by on Saturday to check out some cars.

Scott, you may or may not be interested in my car. It meets your criteria.
I have listed it here before:

$30K is the absolute minimum I'd accept for it, and you'd be getting one hell of a car for that price.

Thanks Corey, the HP is good,but I'm looking for almost new, stock looking, CA car. Preferrably in Tan/Saddle.
