I did not see any pictures of the frame built by Beck.
Are they using a cut VW floor pan?

I like the hefty, strong looks of their frame. Thanks for posting the pic.

no, they're using a space frame

The BECK Speedster and BECK Spyder are built using a 3" DOM tubular chassis.
Several IMPORTANT benefits are derived from incorporating a "purpose built" chassis into every BECK product. These include:
Providing more spacious foot well areas (not possible with bellypan construction).
Exceptional torsional rigidity which provides superior handling.
A smoother, quieter driving experience with an exceptionally solid, rattle-free feel.
