We restore and re-engineer Land Cruisers and selected 4x4s to be driven, not parked. Honest diagnosis, staged planning, and fabrication done in-house. Not the cheapest, not the fastest. The one you call when it needs to be right.
Land Cruisers are what we know best. We also build selected Pajero, Jimny, Defender, Range Rover, Patrol, Hilux and other vehicles that are actually worth the engineering.
Full and staged restorations. Stripped, assessed, and rebuilt to be used, not just shown.
Classic 4x4s re-engineered with modern drivetrains, brakes and comfort, without losing the character.
Rebuilding, blueprinting and engine swaps planned properly. Cooling, wiring and legality included.
Chassis restoration, rust assessment and structural repair done to a standard that lasts.
Suspension and axle conversions, lockers and gearing matched to how the vehicle is actually used.
Custom fabrication, full wiring rebuilds, cooling, brakes and the engineering problem-solving in between.
This is for owners who want a vehicle engineered, documented and built to last, and who understand that a proper build costs proper money and takes proper time.
If you want the cheapest option or a number before we've seen the vehicle, we're honestly not your workshop. If you want it done once and done right, we should talk.
Tell us the vehicle, its condition, and what you want it to become.
Serious projects start with a paid workshop inspection. Old vehicles hide their problems, and we won't guess.
We scope the build in stages, agree the work, and start. The plan can change after teardown, because old metal doesn't read the brochure.
A 1987 HJ61 re-engineered around a Toyota Century 1GZ-FE V12. Full chassis restoration, custom chromoly fabrication, ARB lockers, retained dual-range transfer case, dyno documented. Featured by Silodrome. This is the level we build to.
Every serious project becomes a written case study covering what came in, what we found, the engineering decisions, and how it left.
HJ61, Century 1GZ-FE V12 swap, full chassis restoration.
80 Series given the 2UZ 4.7 V8, on its original chassis, in Tesla Ultra Red.
Supercharged classic Mini, built ground-up for a friend, in memory of his mother.
A diesel 40 Series rebuilt from the chassis up, coil converted and in build.
Tell us what it is and where it's at. An enquiry isn't a commitment and it isn't an instant quote. It's the start of a conversation about whether the build makes sense.
