[DeTomaso] Mystery Car

[Kevin Murphy]

It is not a real Porsche 550 Spyder.
Probably not a Beck but a Chamonix 550 Spyder.
Chaminox supplies Beck's Spyders.

Here's a few shots of my old Beck Spyder.
Even had a Brazilian battery in it when delivered.

Great little tube frame car that could tear apart those Cobra kits ;-)
