The trucks came in quiet. A few from the South. One from Indiana. Some tired, some broken, some holding on by memory alone. But they all had something worth saving — a strong frame, a good shape, a soul you couldn’t build from new.
We stripped them down, one by one. Pulled the engines. Broke loose the bolts that hadn’t moved in decades. Cleaned the metal, rewired the bones. If it didn’t work, we made it work. If it rattled, we tightened it. If it was lost, we made it again.
Engines That Start Right Every Time
A Land Cruiser from the 1970s got a 355 small block, the kind of motor that hums low and pulls hard. We gave it a five-speed and a modern clutch, bolted in a stainless exhaust, and tuned it so clean it sings.
Land Rovers with LS3s rolled out of the shop, quiet at idle but loud when they needed to be. EFI systems kept things tight, cooling fans kept things steady, and every throttle cable pulled true.
We don’t chase horsepower. We chase reliability. That’s the kind of power that matters.
What You Don’t See Still Matters
You don’t always notice new tie rod ends or fresh brake lines. You don’t see a resealed transfer case or custom driveshaft until it saves you 50 miles from nowhere. But that’s the point.
The Series III we brought back from Australia needed everything. So we gave it everything — new seals, new brakes, fixed the wiring, fixed the steering, replaced what was weak and reinforced what was worth keeping.
Every truck gets that kind of attention. Whether it’s a soft top build with a brand-new canvas frame or a rusted FJ60 made right from the axles up.
Keep the Soul. Build Everything Else.
Not every restoration needs chrome. Some trucks wear bedliner on the inside of their doors and Raptor paint across the hood. Some still smell like dust and oil, and that’s exactly how it should be.
But the wiring? Clean. The brakes? Tight. The lights, the gauges, the dash? All working like the first day — only better.
We build interiors with jump seats stitched in leather, shift boots cut by hand, sound deadening under the floor, and radios that play clean in the open air. Everything fits, everything works, and nothing’s fake.
The Road Ahead
We don’t restore trucks to sit still. We build them to move. To climb. To carry. To last.
So if you’ve got a Land Cruiser that needs a second life or a Land Rover that’s forgotten how to run — we’ll bring it back. Not with flash. With work. The kind you don’t always see, but always feel.
