The 1960s introduced two automotive legends that shaped car culture forever: the Jaguar and the Mustang. In Britain, Jaguar revealed the E-Type, a car so sleek that even Enzo Ferrari praised its elegance. Meanwhile, across the Atlantic, Ford launched the Mustang, igniting an all-new automotive movement and creating the “pony car” segment.

Each represented something entirely different: one defined European elegance, while the other embodied American power. Today, both remain timeless icons — and at ECD, they’re not just restored, but reborn into one-of-one restomod masterpieces that blend heritage, design, and modern performance.

So, the real question is — which ECD restomod fits your style best?

The Legacy of Two Icons: Jaguar E-Type and Ford Mustang

The Jaguar E-Type stands as a masterpiece of design and engineering. Introduced in 1961, it stunned the world with its long-nose silhouette and 150-mph performance. Even decades later, the E-Type’s combination of beauty and speed makes it one of the most celebrated cars ever built.

In 1964, Ford answered from the other side of the Atlantic with something entirely new — the Mustang. Unveiled at the New York World’s Fair, it sparked the “pony car” craze and became a symbol of freedom, power, and rebellion. From drag strips to movie screens, the Mustang’s personality was pure American grit, with models like the Shelby GT350 and Boss 302 proving it had muscle to match its style.

While the E-Type and Mustang couldn’t be more different, both reshaped automotive culture. The E-Type embodied refined sophistication, while the Mustang captured raw, unfiltered energy. Six decades later, each remains a symbol of passion and individuality — the kind of car enthusiasts around the world still dream about.

Inside ECD’s Custom Jaguar E-Type Builds

At ECD, a Jaguar E-Type restomod is more than a restoration. Our build process begins with your vision at the center. 

After your design consultation, the car is stripped to bare metal and rebuilt by hand from the ground up. The signature long-nose bonnet is re-sculpted to perfection, while body lines are meticulously shaped for a flawless finish.

Inside, craftsmanship meets personalization — from fine Nappa leather upholstery to modern tech integrations like Bluetooth-ready sound systems. Under the hood, you can opt for traditional authenticity or modern performance, with engine options like the 450-horsepower LS3 V8 or even a fully electric drivetrain.

What sets an ECD E-Type apart is how it blends nostalgia with modern performance. It keeps the heritage alive without the quirks of a vintage car, offering a driving experience that’s smooth, powerful, and reliable.

Starting at $299,995, every ECD Jaguar E-Type is a one-of-one creation. Choose between the elegant Coupe or the open-air Roadster — either way, you’ll own a bespoke statement of timeless design and engineering mastery.

Inside ECD’s Custom Mustang Restomods

Few cars define American automotive culture like the Ford Mustang, and at ECD, this legend gets a new lease on life.

Each Classic Mustang restomod starts at $279,995 and begins with a comprehensive design consultation. From paint color and drivetrain choice to performance upgrades and interior details, every inch of your build reflects your personal style.

The process takes place inside ECD’s state-of-the-art 100,000-square-foot facility, where each car is disassembled, rebuilt, and modernized with cutting-edge engineering. Many clients choose ROUSH-enhanced V8 engines, performance suspension, and upgraded brakes — all designed for real-world driving.

An ECD Mustang isn’t a museum piece; it’s a bold, driveable muscle car built for today’s roads. Whether you go with a Fastback or Convertible, each Mustang restomod combines the charisma of the original with modern-day reliability, performance, and comfort.

Every ECD Mustang is more than a car — it’s a rolling expression of individuality, nostalgia, and craftsmanship.

Which Restomod Build Is Right for You?

Deciding between the ECD Jaguar E-Type and the ECD Mustang comes down to your personality and driving style.

The E-Type restomod is ideal for enthusiasts drawn to timeless elegance, exclusivity, and refined performance. It’s a grand touring car that turns heads wherever it goes — sophisticated, stylish, and understatedly powerful.

The Mustang restomod, by contrast, is unapologetically American. It’s for those who crave boldness, muscle, and sound — a car that makes its presence known on every road. With its aggressive stance and roaring V8, the Mustang delivers an experience that’s visceral and thrilling.

At ECD, both builds capture the soul of their respective eras — it just depends whether you’re drawn to the grace of a British icon or the grit of an American legend.
