Never heard of them.
This is the guy that SactoMitch told us about on here a while back and his website was using photos of Carey's Speedsters. Carey told him to take the photos off his site and he did. This address is a mail drop.
This is the thread:
We met with David White of San Diego Replicas at a Starbucks recently. He said that he is working on his own shop space for SDR and might want to purchase Coupe Kits from me to build. No sales from KitMan Motors to SDR yet. We will see what happens. He said that he has worked in the area for another company and built complete Speedsters. I saw an Green electric Speedster that he said that he built with EV West components for the company that he was working for.
Did Mr. Wright indicate his previous employment? Would be interesting to know where he got his Speedster/Spyder building experience.
Hello everyone! My name is David White and I'm starting the company called San Diego Replicas. www.sandiegoreplicas.com We're just getting started.
Please fell free to ask any questions.
Chris from Kitman Motors contacted me to talk about having us build roller and turnkey cars for their customers as they only sell kits. I worked at Rock West Racing for a little over a year.
Have you built Speedsters and Spyders in the past, and for whom did you work in that endeavor?
Do you have any examples of your work that we could see?
Welcome, and good luck.
Need to see your Coupe examples. Thank you.
Hello BOBG. I worked at Rock West Racing.
With RWR I built their Blue Spyder and their Green Electric Speedster among others. I was one of two car builders. We both left RWR at around the same time and now he works with us.
SDR will have a completed Spyder to show in the coming month/s. With the Speedster to follow shortly. Both with a 5 Speed transaxle.
Thanks for the good wishes!
Hello JULIO B. We we can build you a coupe from Kitman Motors. Not 100% sure what their kit price is but, after talking to Chris from Kitman I have come up with a build price of $35,000 for a turnkey. That's Kit price + 35k. Includes all the correct windows!
It's always exciting when there's new blood in the game. Looking forward to seeing your cars, David.
Thanks Terry!

Julio, I thought you had your heart set on a super wide body?
