Why are high-end restomod builds so expensive?

According to Kindred Motorworks founder Rob Howard, it comes down to one thing: scale.

Most restoration shops rely on manual processes, scattered vendors, and no standardized system—meaning they can only build a handful of cars each year. That drives prices higher and limits consistency.

Kindred flips that model.

By digitizing the entire process—from sourcing parts to building a precise bill of materials—they’re able to standardize production, improve quality, and scale without losing craftsmanship.

Same attention to detail… just built smarter.
