Beck 904

Chuck Beck, a legend among Porsche enthusiasts, began crafting his acclaimed 550 Spyder replicas in 1982. Over the years, he expanded his portfolio with the Shogun concept car and a competitive Lister replica, showcasing his deep expertise in performance engineering and design.
His latest creation, the Beck 904, pays homage to Porsche’s 1963 Carrera GTS—a dual-purpose street and race car notable for its lightweight fiberglass body and mid-mounted engine. With only around 100 originals built for GT homologation, the 904 remains highly coveted. Beck’s replica blends reverence for the original with modern enhancements, delivering a refined version of this iconic machine that honors its racing legacy while pushing its capabilities beyond what was imaginable in its era.

After 43 years in business, the owners of Berrien Buggy Inc. in Michigan chose to retire and offered Acme Trailerworks Inc. (parent company of Acme Car Company) the opportunity to acquire their assets. Known for their sand rail dune buggy frames and fiberglass bodies, Berrien Buggy had built a strong reputation in the off-road market.
In 2012, Acme Trailerworks purchased and relocated all production equipment, molds, and inventory to their facility in New Cumberland, Pennsylvania. The transition began on June 1st, with the first frame completed by July 15th, and fiberglass body production following shortly after. Now operating as Berrien Buggy by Acme, the company continues to manufacture steel components and tubular products, steadily improving quality and expanding its product line. Their full range is available through a network of authorized dealers.
