Family Owned Toyota Land Cruiser Restoration Shop Serving Bend Clients
If you’re in Bend and you’ve been looking for a shop that actually knows Toyota Land Cruisers, you’ve found us. We’re Land Cruiser Restorations, a family owned shop based in Belle Plaine, Kansas, and we’ve been building, restoring, and selling Toyota Land Cruisers for clients across Oregon and the Pacific Northwest for over 20 years.
Bend might be the best Land Cruiser city in the Pacific Northwest. The Deschutes National Forest is right out the back door. The Cascade Lakes Highway, Mount Bachelor, the Three Sisters, the trails of the Ochoco, the rim drives above the Crooked River. Bend Cruiser owners don’t just look the part, they actually use their trucks, and the high desert is exactly the kind of country a properly built Land Cruiser was made for.
We Come To You
Distance is never a problem. We handle all transport at no cost to you, we lift our fingers so you don’t have to. From pickup to delivery, it’s covered. You don’t have to drive your Land Cruiser anywhere or figure out logistics. We handle it completely. Learn more on our Nationwide Service page.
What We Build
We specialize in full Toyota Land Cruiser restorations and custom builds across the entire lineup, FJ40, FJ55, FJ60, FJ62, FJ70, FJ80, 100 Series, and 200 Series. Whether you want a factory correct restoration, a full LS V8 conversion, or a built-out overlander ready for the Cascades and the high desert, we’ve done it and we know how to do it right. Every build is handled in house from start to finish, drivetrain, suspension, brakes, electrical, interior, and paint, and road tested before it ever leaves our shop.
High Desert Cruisers Are Some of the Best in the Pacific Northwest
Here’s something worth knowing about Bend, the high desert climate east of the Cascades produces some of the cleanest Toyota Land Cruisers in the Pacific Northwest. Unlike Portland and the wet west side of the state where moisture and decades of rain take a real toll on the undercarriage, Bend area Cruisers tend to come through the years with solid frames and minimal rust. That makes the Bend region not just a great place to own a Land Cruiser, but a great place to source one. When we look for a Pacific Northwest Cruiser worth restoring, the high desert is the first place we check.
Don’t Have a Land Cruiser Yet? We’ll Find One.
Not every client comes to us with a truck already in hand and that’s completely fine. We actively source rust-free Toyota Land Cruisers worthy of restoration so you don’t have to. Tell us what series and what specs you’re after and we’ll track one down.
Build To Suit
No two builds are the same and we don’t treat them that way. Every Land Cruiser that comes through our shop is built around your vision, your color, your interior, your performance specs. There’s no preset package and no pressure to fit into one. You tell us what you want and we build it.
A Family Business That Treats You Like One
Land Cruiser Restorations is owned and operated by James Sheppard and his family. When you call or email us you’re talking to Jim, Jesse, or Amber, real people who know these trucks inside and out and genuinely care about getting your build right. You’ll get photos along the way, straight answers to your questions, and a finished product we’re proud to put our name on.
Bend Land Cruiser enthusiasts have trusted us with their trucks for years. We’d love to earn yours.
