Our Story
Kitman Motors began in 2016 when San Diego dentist Chris Kleber traded drills for fiberglass, acquiring the legendary Kitzkrieg molds to craft the purest Porsche 356 Speedster and Coupe replicas on the market. For nearly a decade, every body was hand-laid with obsessive attention to detail, earning trust in garages across the country.
In November 2025, Andrew Namminga — an engineer with a lifelong love for building cars — took the reins. Now based in Austin, Texas, we’re keeping Chris’s uncompromising quality while adding modern twists: EV-ready chassis, faster fulfillment, and a new online home that makes the dream of owning and building a 356 easier than ever.
Same lifetime molds. New Texas heartbeat.
Quit dreaming. Start building.
