I've spent some time trying to source a 'new' classic and decided that all those available are of too low a standard for what I'm after, so I'm commissioning someone to build me one from scratch. Been to see the chap and viewed a chassis/bulkhead that will eventually become my car and am very happy with the standard of it and have agreed a rough indication of price for completed vehicle. This is a guy I've known and dealt with for more than ten years on smaller works and who I have complete faith in, but 'quality' is a subjective term, so are there any pointers that have been successfully used in the past to cover this scenario? Its not going to be a cheap project (five figures) so I just want to be sure we're both singing from the same sheet, so to speak! Any advice much appreciated
