Restomod Revolution: Why Custom Builds are Gaining in Respect and Value

In recent years, restomods have taken center stage in the collector car world—especially among a new generation of enthusiasts looking for classic style without sacrificing modern comfort and performance. At Verrillo Motor Car, we’ve watched this trend evolve firsthand and have proudly become known for building some of the most stunning and sought-after restomod Corvettes and specialty cars in the country.

So, what is a restomod? It’s the perfect fusion of restoration and modernization. A true restomod retains the iconic look and feel of a classic—like a mid-year Corvette or vintage muscle car—but is reimagined with contemporary upgrades like fuel-injected LS or LT powerplants, modern suspension, advanced braking systems, custom interiors, and state-of-the-art electronics.

Why are they gaining traction? Younger collectors want the style and soul of vintage cars, but with the reliability, drivability, and amenities of a modern vehicle. Add to that the growing scarcity and cost of original survivor cars, and it’s no wonder restomods have become a red-hot segment of the market.

Here at Verrillo Motor Car, our custom builds are crafted with obsessive attention to detail. Each project is built to exacting standards, and created as a bespoke, 1-of-1-in-the-world masterpiece of automotive art.

Restomods aren’t just about personal expression—they’re proving to be smart investments. Values for high-quality, professionally built custom cars are climbing, and collector auctions are taking notice. These are cars you can enjoy on the road today and take pride in long-term.

Whether you’re dreaming of your own build or looking to purchase a finished restomod, Verrillo Motor Car is your destination for classic soul with a modern edge. Contact Verrillo Motor Car today about our inventory of pre-built and build-to-order restomods!
