Mil-Spec Automotive The Launch Edition

We’ve recently featured a fair few customised cars from the guys at Arkonik, who specialise in Land Rovers, here on the pages of The Coolector and we thought that few could come close to the amazing aesthetic and painstaking attention to detail that they put into their machines but we might just have found a serious contender for their crown in the shape of Detroit based, Mil-Spec Automotive, and their stunning flagship offering, aptly named The Launch Edition.

Mil-Spec Automotive have a spirit for adventure coursing through their veins and it is this mindset which steers the design of their amazing custom automobiles and if their maiden offering, the breathtaking The Launch Edition, is anything to go by, this is a workshop who are going to be inundated with customisation requests for years to come. The Hummer H1 is Mil-Spec Automotive’s muse in this instance and the quality they’ve accomplished both internally and externally with their The Launch Edition machine truly is second to none.

Devil in the Detail

With an unerring focus and patience going into the customisation work, Mil-Spec Automotive have certainly left us impressed here at Coolector HQ and The Launch Edition Hummer H1 truly is a thing of beauty that will definitely appeal to those who gravitate towards uncompromising machines. Quality craftsmanship is the be all and end all for the design team at Mil-Spec Automotive and this is something that is immediately apparent the minute you lay eyes on their maiden creation, The Launch Edition.

The Launch Edition Hummer H1 from Mil-Spec Automotive has been designed in Detroit and hand-built in Wichita to exacting specifications to meet the detailed drawings that served as the catalyst for its creation. Billed as heralding in a new era for adventure, this miraculous looking machine has unquestionably got a real presence to it that immediately draws the eye and it is the result of two years in the design and development phase. As you can plainly see, it has certainly been worth the wait.

With the intention to truly re-envision a product that is tailor made for the 21st century, this served as the starting point for Mil-Spec Automotive’s The Launch Edition machine. Each one comes equipped with a turned, Duramax Turbo-Diesel mated to an Allison transmission which delivers an out of this world performance. This powertrain is capable of producing 500 horsepower and can reach 0-60MPH in 6.8 seconds. The chassis of The Launch Edition is completely re-manufactured in house by the team’s Hummer H1 specialist to guarantee its quality and each component is taken apart and reassembled with new parts before the whole frame and all its components are powder coated.

Unparalleled Interiors

The design team at Mil-Spec Automotive focused on making the interiors of The Launch Edition minimalistic and understated in nature that delivers a driver focused experience. With an aluminium centric interior that is effortlessly cool and provides an impressive visual impact, driving this supremely cool machine will be a real pleasure. First rate, USA sourced materials are used throughout the interiors to ensure a real tangible sense of quality and this is unquestionably one of the finest looking custom cars we’ve encountered in our time here at Coolector HQ.

Exceptional quality underpins everything about this fantastic custom Hummer H1 and for anyone who wants to add a stunning machine to their line up with an incredible attention to detail throughout, you’ll not go too far wrong with this impeccable offering from new Detroit based workshop, Mil-Spec Automotive.
