This weeks interview is with my pal Jeff Martin, founder and owner of Munssey Speed and Design, a company that creates really cool custom designed fibrclass and carbon fiber bumpers and components.

Jeff grew up in a “modest budget” household helping his dad work on the cars and figuring out what a 9/16 wrench was, an experience that lead to a life-long love of cars. Later on he was drawn into computers and digital tech, and holds the prestigious position of Microsoft Technology Manager with the University of California (a full-time job he maintains alongside his Speed and Design company).

Despite the fact that his full time career kept him quite busy, he admits that cars were always on his mind and he couldn’t help coming back to those interests in his spare time. During the restoration of his Ford Falcon he decided to create a “Shelby GT350″ style front bumper for the car out of fiberglass, and played with different designs.
