Parts from Beck/Vintage Motorcars/Type 550

 

Formerly owned by a friend of Jay Leno's, this California 550 has been blessed by the best. Built well, but similar to other cars Chuck Beck was producing, our 550 was later worked on by some of the best in the business. Car number 484 (B) is finished in the iconic Silver paint and complemented by the baby blue “darts”, modeled after the 550 Spyder that Jerry Seinfeld owns. The color combination is striking, offset by the gold pin striping that surrounds the blue darts. When it comes to making these Spyders your own, the possibilities are endless. The previous owner sourced original style 550 turn signal lenses, side view mirror with faring, license plate cover, leather clam straps, Wendler badges, and Porsche scripts & crests which all make for an authentic feel. The paintwork is exceptional from front to back, showing little to no blemishes. The interior on this 550 is equally as nice and features an original style, basket weave material that matches the baby blue darts and the seats are original style 550 sport seats that have plenty of room to spare, thanks to the recessed firewall. The steering wheel is a real Porsche Banjo steering wheel and correct Porsche center crest.

Lift the clam shell bonnet to reveal the guts of this 550. With many different engine variations available, this 550 is the perfect blend of power and speed. Starting with a 1.2 liter VW engine, this motor has been built up to the tune of 2.2 liters and is adorned with dual Weber carburetors and a custom exhaust. All this work together produces about 175 horsepower and is an absolute blast to drive.  4 wheel discs help get this Spyder stopped but are dressed up with original style drum brake simulators and the car also features KYB suspension dampening. These cars were meant to be driven since the original is fairly unobtainable for most people. Don't miss you chance to buy this completely turn key 550 Spyder! The car is very well built and has the best of everything, including the stunning blue darts. Give us a call today to setup a showing right now!!

Unlike most who claim to be a Chicago dealer, Evolve Motors is actually located in Chicago, only minutes from downtown on the north side. A licensed Illinois dealer for over 30 years, Evolve brings experience and value to the ever changing car market. We specialize in mid and high line vehicles as well as classics and exotics. Step foot into our amazing facility and witness first hand the passion and devotion of two brothers carrying on a family tradition.

We pride ourselves on not only the quality of our vehicles and service to our customers, but also on the quality of our staff and members of our team. Owners Michael and Jason Widdes hold degrees in business and engineering respectively and pride themselves on honesty and integrity. Evolve Motors is here for the marathon, not the sprint. We strive to make every interaction/transaction unique and memorable. We will work hard to bring you the best prices on the best vehicles. Spending the better part of it’s life as a wholesale business Evolve knows a thing or two about selling quality pre-owned vehicles for less. With current ecommerce capabilities we are now able to deliver our retail customers the same wholesale prices on quality pre-owned vehicles that were once only available to dealers.
