Reply to "2006 Beck Speedster - Black/Tan - 16k miles - $28,499.00"

WOW, Guys!  Thank you all for the wonderful and informative notes!  I've been offline and buried in work for the last week or so; didn't see all these posts until this afternoon.

 

TRP and Stan, thank you =).  Cheers!

Sacto Mitch, just took a few more photos this afternoon.  Will post them here shortly.  Regarding the engine, I reached out to Carey Hines (who has ALWAYS been very helpful and highly informative), and he gave me a brief background on the motor.  In 2006 BSC put in a 1776cc engine (Solex carbs, eat 90-100hp) as the car served as a show/display car for BSC up until 2010.  The car was brought up to 2010 specs by both BSC then Carey's team when it was returned to Indiana in 2010.  It was then sold to the first owner here in CA.  The owner said that the motor is a 1915cc CB high performance, but I have not found any paperwork to verify it.  Sent multiple pictures of the 6-bolt pan (which came with both the "regular" motors and early Beck 356's).  I've been in a few 70-100 hp Beck 356's, and this car pulls stronger.  The only other hi-performance CB 1915cc cars that I've compared mine to here in the Bay Area have been 550's.

Speedster! - thank you for the kind words!  It was a pleasure meeting you and seeing your other 4-wheeled baby.  I'm looking forward to seeing the new creation from Vintage as well!!
