Nope.

... and to be pedantic, he didn't really "take over the business". The Kirk and Mary Vintage Speedsters of Hawaiian Gardens was sold to Vintage Motorcar of Arizona. They operated out of the Vintage Speedster shop in Hawaiian Gardens for about 10 minutes before firing everybody and moving the business to Scottsdale.

Greg Leach stepped up and moved his operation (Vintage Motorcars, nee Vintage Spyders) into the old Kirk and Mary Duncan shop, and hired all of the fired Vintage Speedster workers back to work building Speedsters and Spyders in the same shop where they'd always worked.

You can't make this stuff up.

Yeah. The Arizona folks told all Kirk's guys that they'd start back up after the Christmas/New Year's holidays. When Kirk's guys showed up, the building was all but empty.

That's when Greg got involved, and moved from Stanton back to Hawaiian Gardens. I believe this was at the end of 2017 and the beginning of 2018 as far as I remember.
