Family Owned Toyota Land Cruiser Restoration Shop Serving Knoxville Clients
If you’re in Knoxville 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 Tennessee for over 20 years.
Knoxville might be the best city in the Southeast to own a Land Cruiser. The Great Smoky Mountains National Park, the most visited national park in the country, is right on your doorstep. The Cherokee National Forest wraps around both sides of the Smokies and has hundreds of miles of forest roads, trails, and two-tracks. The Cherohala Skyway runs through some of the most dramatic mountain scenery in the eastern United States. The Tail of the Dragon is thirty minutes away. Knoxville Land Cruiser owners don’t have to drive far before the roads get serious, and a properly built Cruiser makes every one of them better.
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.
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 custom build ready for the forest roads of the Cherokee and the mountain trails of the Smokies, 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.
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.
Knoxville, the Smokies are right there and the Cherokee goes on forever after that. Let’s build you something that does it all justice.
