Frequently Asked Questions

The cost of a restoration or custom-tailored build can vary depending on a few different factors.

These factors include:

• Your overall vision for your vehicle 
• The vehicle’s current condition
• What paint colors/style you want to use
• Number of parts that need replacing
• Difficulty in sourcing or modifying these parts to fit

We work on many different types of projects, including: 

• Restored: We bring back the original style and performance of the vehicle as the manufacturer made it.
• Restomod: We keep the original look but improve the performance, often with better chassis and driveline. We can also add modern comforts like AC and stereo systems.
• Pro touring: Like restomod, but we focus even more on performance, modifying the body and driveline for better speed and handling.
• Hot rod/Street rod: These are modified cars from a specific period, balancing modern comforts with the right style of that time.
• Full custom: We start with the original body, but we modify or redesign most, if not all, of the car. The result: a unique piece of art.

The time it takes to carry out your restoration will depend on the type of project. 

For a restoration to a street rod, it typically takes 1-3 years, depending on the amount of work needed.

For a full custom project, it usually takes a minimum of 2 years, but could extend to 5 years depending on design decisions. 

The duration is affected by factors like build funding and the availability of parts.
