About Us

We blend the timeless soul and aesthetics of vintage cars with the performance, technology, and reliability of modern automobiles. By shifting away from traditional one-off restorations with their many uncertainties, we have set a new standard—delivering meticulously crafted, high-performance classics with enhanced reliability and drivability.

Success at Velocity requires a “whatever it takes” mentality. We embody grit, demonstrating perseverance, resilience, and unwavering determination in the face of challenges. We are adaptable, embracing change, adjusting to new circumstances, and continuously seeking ways to improve processes and outcomes—because growth does not come from comfort.

We take ownership, assuming full responsibility for tasks, decisions, and outcomes, whether successes or setbacks, without shifting blame. “That’s not my job” is not in our vocabulary; when one part of our team falls short, we all do.

Finally, our ambition fuels our drive to excel, improve, and uphold the highest standards for both personal and professional growth. This mindset defines who we are and ensures our continued success.
