Worldwide restomod company reveals
Project Kalorado coated in Brooklands Green and packed with
power
KISSIMMEE,
Fla., Jan. 25, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- ECD Auto
Design (NASDAQ: ECDA), the world's largest Land Rover and Jaguar
restoration company known for its custom luxury builds, including
bespoke Defenders, Range Rovers and E-Types, today reveals Project
Kalorado – the perfect soft-top Defender 110 hand crafted for its
new home in the Colorado
mountains.
"Our team here at ECD takes a 25-year-old
Defender, and restores it to include all the bells and whistles our
clients can think of," said CEO of ECD Auto Design Scott Wallace.
"If our clients can dream it, we can do it – from the exact shade
of paint to the most modern technology upgrades. It's what makes us
who we are and it is part of the heart of our business."
Sitting underneath the hood of Project Kalorado
is a brand-new 50 state compliant, GM 6.2L V8 engine with a 6-speed
automatic transmission. The restored defender is propped on 16-inch
Wolf wheels and BF Goodrich All Terrain tires made to take on the
incline and curves of Colorado's
mountainous terrain. Project Kalorado also includes custom finishes
such as the heritage style grille, classic bumper, soft-top
multi-point roll cage, rear bumper tow package and mud-flaps.
Fully glossed in a Brooklands Green body exterior
and topped with light tan canvas, Project Kalorado is perfect for
taking the crew from the slopes to Après ski. The spacious truck
and inward facing jump seats leave plenty of room to pack up the
paddleboards in the summer and skis in the winter. With enough room
for eight, the D110 includes heated Puma Classic seats and a single
vertical diamond hand stitched pattern in Hazelnut leather to
complement the soft top. Modern touches to Project Kalorado's list
of customizations include JLAudio speakers and subwoofers, CarPlay,
SiriusXM, Bluetooth and a backup camera and sensor.
