It would be nice to see Matt revise the website to more honestly reflect the fact that it was the old Vintage Speedsters company that built over 3,000 Speedsters, when it was owned by Kirk Duncan.  The new Vintage Speedsters (located in Arizona), purchased by Justin in 2017 and now apparently owned by Matt, has built very few Speedsters.  I'm guessing, but I doubt it's more than 50 and probably closer to 20 or 30.  Again, that's just a guess, but the two that I'm aware of are JPC's car and Danny from Nipomo's car.  I drove Danny's car and after spending several thousand of dollars and several months of work to get all the issues resolved, his car is finally in decent condition.  To be fair, Matt did reimburse Danny for some of the money Danny had to spend, but not all of it.  Also, Danny ordered the car from Justin originally and Matt has at least made an effort to straighten out the problems.

Once more I will point out that Vintage Motorcars of California Inc., which is owned by Greg Leach, has no connection with Vintage Speedsters or Matt in Arizona, other than Matt buys bodies and parts from Greg.

Greg moved his company to the old Vintage Speedsters location in Hawaiian Gardens, California and hired many of the old Vintage Speedsters employees, but is a totally different company. 

Well put Troy..I should have known better when I test drove a speedster with Justin and we ran out of gas 100 yards from his shop😕,...still running good and getting 20mpg on the highway. Knock on wood☺
