This has been the best car buying experience I've ever had (approx. 35 cars now). I'll admit I was a bit apprehensive at first since I hadn't seen the car in person, but I trusted the reviews, and now I can now add my own positive experience. Matt made this a seamless transaction, and I'm one happy customer. The transaction on my end started rough but Matt stood by me, and I appreciated the way Matt helped me through my issues. The car is everything I'd hoped for, and I'm thrilled with how it turned out. I couldn't be happier with the car, it's in beautiful shape! My mechanic looked it over and was genuinely impressed. My friends and I rely on "word of mouth", so I'll make sure everyone I speak to about this car hears about this great experience. Thank you again Matt read more

Just read the other yelp. Matt was slow to respond "always out of town" when we had a deal he magically had a 2nd person bid. Then after increasing price he denied the loan (said car had a issue) Matt used me a leverage to sell for more to someone else. Sad I traveled 2000 miles to test drive and make a deal. Matt is not a honest person read more

Matt is a piece of you know what, he is crooked as hell. He lies, they give fake inspections just to make a buck! If you don't sell your car for what they want instead of what your car is worth they try to blackball you. They are scam artists!!!! read more

What a fiasco! First, Matt is super slow to respond to your calls and messages. Second, his descriptions are WAY over the top. He described the vehicle as a #2 car! Here is his exact description of the vehicle we purchased as he describe it "all lights, turn signals, radio, wipers, heater, gauges, etc. are all in good working condition". Well the RADIO, WIPERS, CLOCK don't work! Upon arrival the car had a serious fuel leak and almost didn't start. I installed a new "real" fuel line. It had some kind of yellow plastic line. We then took off on our first adventure in the car. After 1 1/2 hours we headed home. We heard a load scraping noise. The right front wheel bearing cratered. We limped it home. We smelled gas the whole trip. We discovered the carb was leaking fuel in several areas. So we've enlisted a Ford expert to help us locate all the leaks from the engine. I replaced the front wheel bearings after 9 hours!!! Then the next day the driver door wouldn't open. I finally got it open. The engine leaks oil like a stuck pig! The car needs a "puppy pad" underneath it to catch all the leaks! The following items DON'T work as advertised!! Horn, wipers, radio, clock!!! Everyday we wake up wondering what will be wrong with the car today! But the worst part of the transaction is Matt's SLOW or NO response. I gave him a over a week to check back and see how we liked the car. CRICKETS!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We spent 40K on a car and he could care less!!!!!!! No communications. I left a voice mail about our issues 24 hours ago and no response so I'm leaving him a horrible review!!! Spending this kind of money on an unseen car is scary. I feel you CANNOT trust Matt! He told us this was a #2 car!!!!!!! Really????? His exact words in his description were "this is a rare, classic car that can be driven anywhere with no worries." Well that is a lie!!!!! 8 days later we have still not heard from Matt. We can't take the car out without worrying about what will fail next! The car won't start after driving it for over 15 minutes. Unacceptable!!!!!!!!!!!!! Be warned!!!!!!!!!!! Run away from Matt and Mad Muscle Garage!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! read more

Fake business just a scam be careful and do not send money any questions or criticism on what they are claiming to sell the so called owner will only respond with bashing people and harassing them. Just a heads up. Also when you call out his business his address is a dental office he threatens your family not the brightest bulb in the box. read more

Extremely disappointing....I sold a car thru Matt. Communication was poor. I trusted his casual approach, but it turned out to be a mistake. The sales process was never completely explained. We had a miscommunication on the sale price. I thought it included his fee, I found out it wasn't only after he collected the money from the buyer. I even sent him a text about this confirming the offer was the total amount to "us" meaning my father and I to which he responded "Yes". No confirmation that money wire was sent until I asked, no notice of shipping (when or who) until I got a call from the shipper. No instructions on title xfer, I had to ask. I was selling this vehicle for my Dad, after accepting an offer of less than what we expected and miscommunication on the sale price, I sent him a text to express my frustration and he responds "have a nice day" and "Seriously, what's your problem". Also, no accountability in other customer reviews regarding issues or complaints. read more

Just bought a car from Matt, everything about the car was wrong. Said the car solid no rust not patches car was solid. In fact there was lots of patches one 2ft x 2ft hole underneather where I guess one the patches was either gone or never patch and sound deader was visible. All side windows leaked the seals where probably all original and who ever painted got over spray all over the windows. Couldn't tell you how much body filler is on the car. I'm afraid to find out. He said he state his reputation on how solid that car is which I have on text message or email for evidence if any cards to see it. Replacing floor pans wasn't in my budget. So just let everyone watch out for what you get from this guy and his company. I actual talk with owners supposedly if they where they owners and told them I would take care of that car for the rest of my life, but I change my soon as I get repair it's getting traded for some else. This a bad way to treat classic car buyers. Buyer Beware is all I say. Only reason I added a star so it would let me post this reveiw. Now you try to explain to your insurance that car is worth $28K. They would only insure for $18. I have all that replaced and fix before they would re-evaluate the insured amount. That's pretty funny that you said false and not true acquisition, just look at pictures the proof is in the pictures read more

Matt was incredible. I had Matt do a pre-purchase inspection on my 69 firebird in wisconsin, he did an exceptional job, the car finally made it all the way to California and it exceeds my expectations. Made my out of state purchase extremely easy, no surprises extremely thorough. You get your moneys worth for his amazing work. Can't go wrong with having Matt do your pre-purchase inspection. Thank you Matt!! Mechelle M. read more

Professional and very thorough inspection performed. 100,s of pics, videos and great write up of findings. Answers follow-up questions promptly and honestly. Highly recommended. read more

I feel disrespected, misled and ignored. I hired Matt to do a pre-purchase inspection on a nice 1963 Buick Riviera and I bought the car. Matt did $4,000 in work on it and I paid in full. The day before shipping to Florida, Matt called to confess he'd had an accident with my car and that he tried to fix it, but admitted his repair was poorly executed. He told me he'd pay to get it fixed after delivery to me. I've contacted Matt over 16 times since the car was delivered but he has not made good on his promise. He even refused a certified letter requesting payment. Twice more he said he'd make this right but he still won't follow through. I would never let Matt touch my car again. This all happened in August 2021- March 2022. read more

Just purchased a classic Lincoln Mark IV from here yesterday. Excellent service and follow up. Highly recommend!

I had Matt do a a pre-purchase inspection and appraisal on a '68 Mustang for me. Even with the 4 hour round trip drive the price was a great deal. He was very responsive to get it done as quickly as possible and the result was very thorough and quality work. Matt was very nice and helpful answering all of my questions including basic ones about these old cars in general since I'm new to this. Definitely helped me buy with confidence and feel comfortable that I was making a good choice and was well informed about what I will be getting. I would highly recommend, and the next time I'm in the market I'll be checking his inventory first and definitely using his services if the car I find is somewhere else nearby. read more

I consigned my 1964 Buick with Mad Muscle Garage and could be happier. I will be a customer for life! Great experience!
