I bought a 41 willys kit last year, received the kit , building the rolling chassis as we speak , never had a problem at all with anything, Had a few technical questions which they were very helpful and knowledgeable, my dad had a 41 and it brings back so many memories, thanks streetbeast

I ordered a kit from streetbeast 5 years ago and have been paying on the layaway plan, last year I had about $2000 left to pay and was diagnosed with cancer, those saints at streetbeast forgave what I owed and shipped my dream car (34 Coupe) right away so I could build and drive it with my wife before I passed, God Bless Street Beast


I had just gotton out of the hospital after knocking my teeth out with a pop rivot gun (Im building a factory five kit) , I was so frustated I pick up the phone and called streetbeast, they said they would take that junk and swap me for a real Street rod, in 2 weeks I had a new 33 Vicky in the garage and a new set of dentures....Thanks Streetbeast
