Looks like Street Beast is finally going out of business (again).

Hopefully they didn't leave anybody hanging for money or parts.

This is like a double screw for owners... you've got the poor reputation to overcome in resale and now you've got the total demise of the supplier.

I've been hearing rumblings about this for some time now. Unfortunately, I know there are several of their customers that are going to be left hanging. We've had several Street Beast cars through the shop and have been supplying their customers / builders with parts for some time now.
While I can't guarantee all of my parts will fit, I'll do everything I can to help. If you are needing parts or just looking for some advice, feel free to call or e-mail me.

Dana,
I for one would expect no less from you. Allow me to jump/crawl onto your wagon. If I can help you know I will!

Hopefully it will be like when CMC was nailed (same-same) at least the feds forced CMC to replace most parts.

This time...I don't think the court is letting him keep enough collateral to open a rotten peanut stand!

I honestly hope this is the end of Mr. Levin. Now if I could only afford "Hotrods" attorney's and go after the, ahemmmm, the %$#@! that destroyed my business, played a big roll in collapsing CR's II, and caused the demise and condemning of our home!

Bitter? Who-me

Nah, I'm a very very patient guy. Know the song; "I pray for you!!"..........

For anyone following the auction:

Leave anybody hanging? They show some bodies and chassis in the auction catalog. How many deposits did they receive for each of those?

That shop looks like it was raided and all the good stuff sold a long time ago.
