Buford shop crafts luxury classic cars

It's 925. Well, classic cars have a look many drivers love, but they don't always come with the reliability and the safety of today's vehicles. But one local company is changing that. They're building modern vehicles with the style of the past. And Good Days Kim Loeffler shows us how that idea grew from one man's dream. For as long as Cho Nguyen can remember, cars have been more than a hobby. So I grew up just loving cars, dreaming of cars. and I basically used that as my motivation in life to go out and be successful so that I could buy cars one day. I never knew that I'd be building them one day but it was essentially what I was meant to do. He started buying old cars but while the vehicles looked great they came with plenty of problems. And so it pretty much was a necessity of mine to figure out how do we make it better how do we make it where you can actually drive it. That idea became the foundation for his Buford company. Instead of simply restoring an old car, the team starts with a modern vehicle and then builds a classic-inspired luxury car around it. And that's how you get modern-day technology, reliability, and safety. The finished product comes with a luxury price tag. These vehicles sell for more than $200,000. But for customers willing to pay that price, the appeal is having the best of both worlds. The timeless look of a classic car with the comfort, safety, and reliability of a modern one. Having all of the things that you're used to in your modern car and not having to give that up is a big priority for people, especially at this price point. The company says social media has also helped fuel its growth, showcasing the vehicles and the people who build them, even attracting some celebrity clients. So far, they've shipped out over 500 cars. They'll soon be launching a new model and moving into a new factory to keep up with demand. We're also expanding to a new factory that'll be three times the size of this building. And then we're adding 100 people to our team to launch the new model and to prepare for you know the future growth. For Wynn, the success is still rooted in the same passion that started it all. You know, I still walk through here, and I'm still a kid chasing a dream. And if you love something, I think you'll be relentless about it. And so one thing that we're big on here is passion. It's clear to see Wynn's dream isn't in the rearview mirror. It's the driving force on his road to success. In Buford, Kim Loeffler for Good Day Atlanta. They are beautiful. I love them. The new model is expected to launch in the next couple of months.
