KISSIMMEE, Fla., April 09, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- (NASDAQ: ECDA) — ECD Automotive Design, the world’s largest Land Rover and Jaguar restoration company known for its custom luxury builds, is thrilled to announce the opening of its seasonal pop-up location at 10 Easy Street in Nantucket, launching just in time for the island’s vibrant Daffodil Festival Weekend. This marks the beginning of a full calendar of events and engagements running through December 2025.
On the island now are two distinct ECD vehicles—each showcasing a different side of the brand’s one-of-one craftsmanship and reimagined performance.
Leading the season is Project Essex, a bold Bahama Gold Defender 110 soft top from ECD’s new County Collection, inspired by the historic counties of England. With its striking color, modern stance, and open-air configuration, Essex brings warmth and energy to Nantucket’s streets. Under the hood, a 6.2L GM LT1 V8 engine and 8-speed automatic transmission deliver a powerful, smooth drive, while the interior features premium leather seating and refined utility—blending rugged capability with coastal sophistication.
Also on the island is Project Race, a vintage-inspired white Land Rover Series III 109 with iconic lines and an analog driving experience. Powered by a 6.2L GM LS3 V8 and 5-speed manual transmission, Project Race honors classic British style with a modern performance twist. It will proudly represent ECD in the Antique Car Parade during Daffodil Weekend.
Both vehicles are available for viewing and test drives and may be rotated throughout the season as they are sold or delivered. Visitors to 10 Easy Street are encouraged to stop by, experience these one-of-one builds in person, and begin their own journey to create a fully custom vehicle.
The 10 Easy Street pop-up is designed not as a showroom, but as a creative hub and relaxed gathering space, where potential clients can explore ECD’s luxury design process and connect with the brand in an approachable, engaging way. A dedicated brand ambassador is available for private consultations, test drive coordination, and to guide clients through every step of the custom build experience.
“We’re not just bringing vehicles to the island—we’re creating moments,” said Kevin Kastner, Chief Revenue Officer at ECD. “This is about connecting with people who love design, adventure, and storytelling. Our pop-up is an open door to experience what it feels like to dream up something that’s completely yours—and then see it brought to life.”
Throughout the year, ECD will also be collaborating with local Nantucket brands on unique lifestyle experiences, culminating in the reveal of a Nantucket Special Edition vehicle later this summer. Designed to reflect the island’s character, the one-off build will showcase the intersection of bespoke automotive design and local inspiration.
ECD is keeping the details of the special edition under wraps—but if you’re a Nantucket-based brand with a bold idea, the door is open.
Every ECD vehicle is designed and hand-built in the U.S.A. at the company’s 100,000-square-foot facility in Kissimmee, Florida. Each build takes over 2,200 hours of expert craftsmanship—blending classic Land Rover style with modern performance, luxury, and personalization.
ECD invites Nantucket residents, visitors, and enthusiasts to follow the journey all season long for updates on vehicle arrivals, test drives, events, and special releases.
