UPDATE: I was lucky enough to get to drive the Beck SC prototype at Carlisle last week and I have to say that it's pretty fantastic.  It is amazingly roomy and quiet inside, and has lots of power and torque across the whole RPM range.  I didn't have time or clear enough roads to really push it and test the handling, but what I could tell when taking Mike Fincher to get a "healthy" donut breakfast was impressive.  The steering and brakes are up to modern standards although the gearshift felt a bit loose to me.  There were a few "tells" that it was a prototype (gearshift, heavy clutch, too stiff suspension bushings), but those are easy fixes.  The number of changes that need to be made for production is surprisingly small.

My car is still a few months out, but I expect the chassis and body to be transported from Chuck (northern GA) to Carey (northern IN) any day now, which will signal the start of real production.  I should start getting some pictures to post then.
