Restomod Builds

Modern Performance. Original Character.

At Speedshop44, we specialise in restomod builds for vehicles from the 1980s through the early 2010s. Vehicles from this era offer the best of both worlds: strong design foundations with just enough modern engineering to evolve and are therefore ideal candidates for dialled in, fully specified restomods. Our goal is simple: to take well-designed, era-defining cars and bring them up to today’s standards without compromising their original identity.

What We Do

Whether you're working with a European classic, a JDM icon, or a domestic performance car; we offer full-scope builds that combine restoration and modern upgrades for a turn-key, responsive, and refined driving experience.

We keep the spirit of the original vehicle intact while updating the systems that matter most:

  • Engine and drivetrain upgrades

  • Suspension and brake improvements

  • Modern electronics, lighting, and wiring

  • Interior refinishing with comfort and usability in mind

  • Functional enhancements like sound insulation, A/C, and safety features

Every build is a custom project, whether it’s for daily driving, spirited road use, or occasional track work.

Next Level Customisation

And if you want to take it to the next level? At Speedshop44, this is all possible. Exterior changes can be kept subtle and intentional - refinished wheels, updated trim, and refined bodywork, carefully chosen to enhance the vehicle’s original lines and proportions, preserving its classic aesthetic while giving it a sharper, more purposeful presence.

Our Approach

We work closely with our clients from day one to ensure a smooth, transparent, and collaborative build process. It all begins with an initial consultation, where we take the time to understand your goals and vision - whether that’s performance, comfort, aesthetics, daily drivability, or occasional weekend, or track use.

From there, we move into the planning and design phase, developing a detailed build plan that outlines the scope of work, timeline, and budget. To help you visualise the final outcome, we produce concept drawings that reflect the intended design direction, allowing you to see how the finished vehicle will take shape. You’re involved at every step, with regular updates to keep things clear and on track.

Once the plan is finalised, we begin the build, ensuring consistent quality throughout the project. Our team handles all mechanical, fabrication, and electrical, work under one roof; working closely with our trusted partners for paint and interior trim. When the build is complete, we move to final tuning and delivery. Every car is fine-tuned on our rolling road and road-tested to ensure all systems perform flawlessly.

The finished vehicle is a one-of-a-kind build tailored to your vision: reliable, finely balanced, and engineered for modern performance without losing the essence of its original character.
