If you can get the roller for under $3,000 you could, theoretically, finish ahead of this car, money-wise.

UNLESS you do all sorts of crazy detail stuff like Ed, then you'll be WAY behind the 8-ball, upside down or in the red!

Don't be like Ed.

Special Edition in Indiana or Greg at Vintage Motorcars Inc. in California are go-tos for Spyder parts. Everything else is just VW stuff.

I'll bet Carey Hines could tell you if this is a Beck from Upland, CA, or Brazil, or not a Beck at all.

Welcome and come back and ask questions, there are many knowledgeable guys here and on spyderclub.com.

The first thing I'd do is jack it up, put the trans in a forward gear, then turn the input shaft clockwise. Then you'll know if the ring gear was flipped to the driver's side...
