The Wellesley Commission: A Jaguar Triumph
Commissioned as a one-of-one build for a private collector, The Wellesley Commission is a handcrafted Jaguar E-Type Series III, extensively reengineered for modern performance while retaining the soul of the original 1960s icon. Finished in the beautifully classic British Racing Green with a rich Spinneybeck Veluto Pelle interior and powered by a modern LS3 V8, the vehicle wowed judges and attendees alike at the prestigious British Car Day, hosted by the Larz Anderson Auto Museum in Brookline, Massachusetts.
“To have one of our builds honored at a museum so closely tied to British automotive heritage is incredibly rewarding,” said Scott Wallace, Co-Founder and CEO of ECD. “The Wellesley Commission represents everything we strive for — craftsmanship, individuality, and timeless design.”
Project Ghost '67: A New Chapter for ECD
Marking a bold expansion beyond its British roots, ECD’s Project Ghost '67 is the company’s first fully bespoke Ford Mustang build. Completed earlier this year, the 1967 fastback Mustang merges classic American muscle with ECD’s precision approach to performance and personalization. Featuring a small-block 465 HP Roush V8 engine, Rambler Chrome wheels, custom heated Recaro seats, and a stealth high gloss mineral white, the vehicle earned Best of Class in the Modified Muscle Car division at the 2025 Route 66 Road Fest, a national celebration of American automotive culture.
In recognition of its design and engineering excellence, Project Ghost has also been invited for display at a special launch event at the Roush Museum in partnership with the Roush Automotive Collection in Livonia, Michigan on July 11th. The exhibit will celebrate standout custom and performance Mustangs, placing ECD’s debut American muscle build alongside some of the most iconic names in the industry.
“Winning Best of Class with our very first custom Mustang validates our vision to expand beyond Land Rovers and Jaguars,” said Elliot Humble, ECD Co-Founder and Chief Technical Officer. “Project Ghost represents the next evolution of ECD — applying our proven craftsmanship to the most iconic American nameplates.”
