Family Owned Toyota Land Cruiser Restoration Shop Serving All of Florida
Land Cruiser Restorations is a family-owned shop in Belle Plaine, Kansas, specializing exclusively in Toyota Land Cruisers. For more than 20 years, we’ve worked with owners throughout Florida—from Miami and Fort Lauderdale to Tampa, Orlando, Jacksonville, and the Panhandle—building, restoring, and upgrading Land Cruisers for the way each client wants to use them.
Distance doesn’t have to stand between you and the right restoration shop. For full restoration projects, we provide complimentary pickup and return delivery throughout Florida, allowing the entire project to be handled without you having to coordinate transportation to Kansas.
Why Florida Land Cruiser Owners Choose Us
Florida is home to a strong Toyota Land Cruiser community, from classic FJ40s and FJ60s to custom FJ62s, FJ80s, 100 Series, and 200 Series trucks. Whether the goal is a carefully restored classic, a comfortable coastal cruiser, or a modernized restomod built for everyday driving, we build each Land Cruiser around how its owner plans to use it.
Land Cruisers aren’t one part of our business—they’re our entire business. For more than 20 years, our shop has specialized in FJ40, FJ55, FJ60, FJ62, FJ70, FJ80, 100 Series, and 200 Series Land Cruisers. That experience allows us to approach each restoration with an understanding of the platform that only comes from working on these trucks every day.
Hassle-Free Land Cruiser Transport Throughout Florida
For full restoration projects, we provide complimentary pickup and return delivery throughout Florida. Whether your Land Cruiser is in Miami, Fort Lauderdale, West Palm Beach, Tampa, Orlando, Jacksonville, Naples, Sarasota, or somewhere in between, we’ll coordinate transportation to our shop in Kansas and its return to you when the restoration is complete.
We work with licensed and insured carriers and can arrange open or enclosed transportation depending on the vehicle and your preference. Running or non-running Land Cruisers can be transported, so your Cruiser doesn’t need to be road-ready before the project begins.
What We Look for in Florida Land Cruisers
Florida can be an excellent place to find Toyota Land Cruisers worth restoring, particularly compared with trucks that have spent decades in areas where road salt is heavily used. A solid frame, floors, body mounts, and body structure can make a major difference in both the scope and cost of a restoration.
But a Florida history doesn’t automatically mean a Land Cruiser is rust-free. Coastal salt air, humidity, water exposure, storage conditions, previous repairs, and the individual history of the vehicle all matter. Corrosion can still develop around roof seams, rain gutters, body panels, undercarriage components, and other moisture-prone areas.
That’s why we evaluate each Land Cruiser individually before determining whether it’s a good restoration candidate. If you don’t already own the Cruiser you want to restore, we can also help locate and evaluate potential starting points before the build begins.
How a Florida Land Cruiser Restoration Works
Working with a restoration shop in Kansas may sound complicated when you’re in Florida, but we’ve built our process to make long-distance projects straightforward from start to finish.
Tell Us About Your Land Cruiser
Send us photos of your Cruiser and tell us what you want from the finished build. We’ll talk through the vehicle, your goals, and the scope of restoration you’re considering.
Build Your Restoration Plan
Every project is built to suit. Together, we’ll determine the mechanical work, drivetrain, paint, interior, suspension, accessories, and other details that make sense for your Land Cruiser and how you plan to use it.
We Bring Your Cruiser to Kansas
For full restorations, we coordinate complimentary pickup from your location in Florida and transportation to our shop in Belle Plaine, Kansas.
Your Land Cruiser Is Built In-House
Our team completes the restoration at our shop, with the work centered around one thing: Toyota Land Cruisers. You’ll receive updates throughout the project as your Cruiser comes together.
We Deliver It Back to Florida
Once the restoration is complete and the vehicle has been road-tested, we coordinate complimentary return delivery to you in Florida.
What We Build
We specialize in complete Toyota Land Cruiser restorations, restomods, and custom builds. Depending on the project, that can mean preserving the original character of the truck, rebuilding and refreshing factory systems, or creating a completely updated Land Cruiser with modern power, drivability, comfort, and capability.
Our work can include LS V8 conversions, drivetrain upgrades, suspension, brakes, steering, electrical systems, air conditioning, custom interiors, paint and bodywork, and the countless smaller details that bring an older Land Cruiser together as one finished build.
Every project is approached as a complete vehicle rather than a collection of unrelated upgrades. The goal is a Land Cruiser that looks right, drives right, and works the way its owner intended.
Why Work With a Land Cruiser Specialist?
A vintage Toyota Land Cruiser is different from a modern vehicle, and restoring one correctly requires more than general automotive experience. These trucks have their own quirks, common problem areas, parts challenges, and details that can make a major difference in how the finished vehicle looks, drives, and performs.
For more than 20 years, Land Cruiser Restorations has focused exclusively on Toyota Land Cruisers. Our team works on them every day, from early FJ40s and classic FJ60 and FJ62 models to later-generation Land Cruisers.
Our builds are completed in-house at our shop in Belle Plaine, Kansas. Mechanical and electrical work, drivetrain upgrades, body and paint, interior, suspension, and final road testing are all handled as parts of one coordinated project.
Built to Suit, Not Built From a Package
Every Land Cruiser that comes through our shop is built around its owner. There isn’t a preset restoration package that dictates what your Cruiser has to become. Paint, interior, drivetrain, suspension, comfort, capability, and the smaller details are selected around your vision for the finished truck.
Whether you want to preserve the character of a classic Land Cruiser or create a thoroughly modernized restomod, we build the project around what matters to you and how you intend to use it.
We’re a family-owned and operated business, and our clients work directly with the people responsible for their project. You’ll receive straightforward communication and progress updates throughout the build, from the first conversations about your restoration through final delivery.
That’s what Built To Suit means to us: your Land Cruiser, built for you.
