True craft demands time, humility, and repetition. Only then does it become art. In many cultures, it takes a decade or more before a craftsman is trusted to work alone. Years of discipline before mastery, because art cannot be rushed.
To turn craft into something consistent, we needed more than skill. We needed process. That is why we invited Kaizen Institute to work with us for a year, to build a system where every part is traced, every step documented, every improvement carried forward. From there, the work begins.
Each vehicle is disassembled to the last bolt. Chassis 3D scanned, corrected, or remade. Engine, gearbox, and axles rebuilt piece by piece. New wiring, every part treated, coated. Aluminium panels restored or fabricated new, then pre-fitted to the chassis until every line and gap feels exact. Only then does paint begin, inside and out, polished once, reassembled, polished again, and sealed. Interiors cut and stitched by hand. Mohair soft tops reinforced for decades of use. Every detail considered, visible or not. We document everything, not just for today, but for decades to come. So that in thirty or forty years, your children can
retrace every decision, every upgrade, and choose whether to keep it or return it to original specification. If you are looking for time, unhurried, yours to keep, that is what we are building. The purity of experience stripped to its essentials. Something that gives you presence, not distraction. Only what matters. And in that, everything. I have been at this for almost fourteen years, and I am still learning. Each build teaches me something new. My only obsession is to do one more, and to do it better.
