City Streets and Beyond: ECD Debuts Stylish Range Rover Classic that Does it All

MicrosoftTeams-image (2)

KISSIMMEE, Fla., Oct. 24, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- ECD Auto Design (ECD), the world’s largest Land Rover restoration company internationally famed for its custom restomods, today unveils Project Stinky – a modern take on the beloved V8 Range Rover Classic. A chic adventure vehicle perfect for city cruising and fun-filled downtown shopping alike, this bespoke offroader is the ultimate love letter to British aesthetics.

“At ECD, there’s nothing we love more than working with our clients to design the ideal vehicle for their needs and achieving performance the original Range Rover Classics could only dream of,” said ECD CEO and co-founder Scott Wallace. “Project Stinky has all the hallmarks of the 1990s British Range Rover Classics, yet our craftsmen’s touches take it to another level of class and capability.”

Passionately preserved, the Arles Blue build is nearly indistinguishable from the muscle cars that populated the 1990s. Under the hood, the brand-new V8 engine draws upon the heritage of older Range Rovers while updating it with 21st-century performance. The build sits on 18-inch Kahn wheels, making it ready to take on paved highways and brick roads alike. Designed for leisure, Project Stinky features a full-size roof bars and tow hitch, gracefully outclassing other city drivers.

The interior effortlessly combines comfort and first-class finishes, resulting in a custom build unlike any other. Project Stinky has ample space for five to take on the town, with heated Range Rover Electric Captain seats in the front row. The seats, classic dash and steering wheel are wrapped in a matching gorgeous beige leather – fashionably contrasting the dark blue and black of the exterior while upgrading the experience of riding in a vintage Range Rover. On the way home from downtown shopping, the DJ can stream their playlist via wireless Bluetooth and best-in-class audio system. Additional modern upgrades of this build include three USB ports, a wireless charger and a backup camera that projects through the Halo touchscreen infotainment system.
