Commission Guide
Answers to the questions clients ask before starting a one-of-one modern classic commission.
Important questions, plainly answered.
Is this a restoration?
No. Vintage Modern specializes in modernized interpretations of classic automobiles. The goal is classic presence with modern usability, safety, and support.
How long does a commission take?
Timing depends on model family, specification complexity, component availability, and queue position. The discovery conversation establishes a realistic production window before the brief is finalized.
Can I choose every interior detail?
Yes. Leather, woven inserts, stitching, hardware finishes, dashboard color, instrumentation feel, and practical storage details are all considered during specification.
Do you offer warranty support?
Yes. The ownership experience is designed around white-glove support, practical documentation, and a long-term relationship beyond delivery.
Can I buy an available vehicle instead of commissioning?
When completed or near-completed vehicles are available, they appear on the Inventory page. Most clients still begin with a private consultation to confirm fit.
Are you associated with Ford or Mercedes-Benz?
No. Trademarked names are referenced only for identification of historical inspiration or donor context. Vintage Modern is independent and not sponsored or endorsed by any motor company.
