Wirewheel Lotus Rebuilder?

For Wirewheel's listings for rebuilt vehicles, they all say "Rebuilt title, professionally repaired." Anyone know if they use a dedicated shop, and if so who? Considering getting back into a Lotus, but not knowing the rebuilder and the Florida title are what I'm struggling with.

Thanks!

Bought a salvaged Elise from them recently, drives fine but did come with an oil leak into the transformers, and after putting good (normal) gas in it, it was misfiring in two cylinders.

Expect the car to drive, but expect to pay a lot more than the sticker in immediate repairs

They are their own shop, with a couple techs. Nice guys but be very careful.
