Robert jumps right in by asking David to elaborate on what SpeedKore's philosophies are before focusing on the company's predilection for Chargers (1:03), before having David review the cars of note his company has built, rebuilt, and enhanced (3:50). Then David explains why car owners should consider carbon fiber as an option for restoring or upkeeping their classic cars (9:16), considers the need for artisan expertise in car making (10:25), and the importance of education for younger enthusiasts (11:35). Then Robert asks David to recount a story about one of his particularly 'super' clients (12:48). 

After a short break, Robert asks for 'Carbon Fiber 101' to learn what processes can help car owners and what options they should consider in their car purchases and restorations (17:27). After the rundown, Robert asks David to highlight some of the most aesthetically superior work that SpeedKore has done (25:22) along with some of the work he's doing in partnership with Classic Recreations (29:42). Lastly, Robert asks David to discuss how to get the next generation excited about cars which prompts David to share his own story and offers his help to young people getting started (33:55).

Cars that Matter is all about cars that have captured people’s hearts. They are the special cars, and they come from every decade since the dawn of the Automotive Age. They might be from the Brass Era or today’s Battery Era. They have names like 911 or SL, Corvette or Countach, or simply M. All have fueled passion in the people who created them, owned them, raced them, or sometimes—with remorse—parted with them.
From CurtCo Media.
​

On Cars That Matter, we talk with designers, engineers, race-car drivers, market experts, historians, restorers and collectors about the brightest luminaries in the automotive universe. What connects our guests and our audience? Like ourselves, each has a love affair with the automobile. Or maybe many. For all of us, these cars are not merely brands, like toothpaste or a pair of tennis shoes. Each one bears a marque, with a crest or ornament atop its hood. And every one of them has a fascinating story to tell.
