It was creepy.

Not an expert, but I've never seen a Beck replica with the rear fender intakes. Don't know what it is, but I'd guess against it being a Beck.

This has to be the same car that I saw at a local car show awhile ago.
I just recall the owner saying it was custom built in California for $45,000. I wish I could recall the rest of the details.
