@Lane Anderson It 's interesting what you say about the Chamonix facility in Brazil, and its relationship to Beck.
There was a post here recently about Bugeye Sprites, and the fact that the Bugeye Guy is now selling Speedsters. I checked it out, and he has a silver 2009 Beck speedster for sale that he says is registered as a 1957 Charmonix (his spelling).

I was confused how that could be, but your post help clarify it a little.
