Hello fellow DeLorean owners and enthusiast.
I have been quite busy over the past 18 months, as my company has expanded.
As most of you know, in 2003 I approached Stephen Wynne about opening a DMC center in Florida. I was looking to open a shop and wanted to align myself with the best in the business. Years later as customers approached me to work on other collector cars I put together a mental wish list of all the cool car things that I like. Being a performance and exotic car enthusiast I decided again to only align myself with the best in the business such as Shelby, Superformance and Dynojet. The following is a press release explaining my history and expansion. I thought I would share it with you all first.
Sincerely,
Tony Ierardi
