Restomod Build Diary

This is another new engine choice for us, using a brand new 2.3 EcoBoost. A new British Heritage shell was sourced with NACA ducts integrated into each rear quarter.

The colour is Tweed Grey.  As with all our manual builds, this comes equipped as standard with our solid state electronics setup, steering-wheel mounted controls for variable boost and traction control and the Coolerworx gear selector.

Engine management is via a Delta ECU and we will be expecting 350-400 BHP. Cayman leather seats, an electric heater and our custom dashboard with traditional gauges complete the spec.
