Drive Different

We have always had a soft spot for custom builds and restomods, those rare machines that blend vintage soul with modern muscle. The new book "Drive Different – Restomods and Iconic Automobiles Reimagined", by Gestalten and Classic Driver, dives deep into that fascinating world, capturing how classic cars are reborn for a new era of performance and design.

This stunning 228-page coffee table book showcases some of the most exciting names in the game, from Alfaholics, Cool & Vintage, and Tuthill to Everrati and Zero Labs, who are redefining the electric classic. With photography from some of the industry’s finest and profiles of 48 influential builds, Drive Different celebrates craftsmanship, innovation, and the passion that fuels automotive artistry.

Whether you’re a car enthusiast, designer, or simply someone who appreciates the balance between heritage and progress, this book is a visual love letter to the restomod culture. Available now from the Classic Driver Shop, Drive Different is a must-have for anyone who believes the future of driving is rooted in the past, just built better.
