Founder, Matthew Scyoc
Growing up in California, Matthew was born with a passion for vintage cars passed down from his father who had always dedicated time to restoration, and collection. He spent countless hours learning to bring cars back to life as a teenager in the garage. He had learn mechanical skills from his father and how to care for a car’s story, by 16, he and his father had fully restored a 1967 Ford Mustang Fastback.
Matthew earned a degree in mechanical engineering, eventually followed by a career in the aerospace engineering community before moving to Florida. When he was on the move, he delved into the state's vigorous car culture, hitting junkyards on weekends, going to swap meets and auctions, and restoring rare finds. Over the years he had earned a reputation in the vintage car community for his craftsmanship, meticulous and his ability to bring back forgotten classics whilst retaining their original character.
At the age of early 40s, Matthew decided to personify his restoration skills and storytelling talent, using them to create a niche in the online world of the vintage car enthusiasts, called Driveway Dreams. He shares some restoration tips through the platform and shows iconic models, while connecting collectors with a common passion. Driveway Dreams is not just a website for Matthew, it’s the overdue product of decades of obsessing over his own driveway dreams and trying to motivate others to do the same.
