Classic Toyota Land Cruisers by restoration level
Three Levels of Excellence
From meticulous Platinum full restorations to focused Silver refurbishments, each restoration level is designed to honor your Toyota’s heritage while meeting your specific goals.
Craftsmanship Levels in Classic Toyota Land Cruiser Restoration

At FJ Classics, we understand that each vintage Toyota Land Cruiser deserves individualized attention and a restoration approach that matches both its historical significance and your vision. Our three-tiered restoration system ensures that whether you're seeking a complete transformation or a thoughtful refurbishment, your classic Land Cruiser receives the expert care it deserves.
The Platinum Experience: Complete Frame-Off Restoration
Our flagship Platinum restoration represents the pinnacle of Land Cruiser transformation. This comprehensive frame-off process goes beyond mere restoration – it’s a complete rebirth of your classic Toyota. Using advanced resto-mod techniques, we enhance these timeless vehicles with modern amenities while preserving their classic character.
Each Platinum restoration includes sophisticated upgrades like 5-speed manual transmission, power steering, and front disc brakes, seamlessly integrated with modern comfort features such as AC/heating systems and premier sound solutions. Every component receives meticulous attention, from complete electrical rewiring to thorough rust elimination through professional sandblasting and refinishing.
Gold Standard: Comprehensive Restoration
The Gold level restoration delivers professional-grade rejuvenation for your classic Land Cruiser. While maintaining the vehicle’s original integrity, our expert technicians completely overhaul crucial mechanical systems – from engine and transmission to transfer cases and differentials.
This restoration level is particularly suited for series 60, 70, and 80 Land Cruisers, where our specialists focus on preserving originality while ensuring reliable performance. Every restoration includes thorough interior refurbishment and critical rubber seal replacement, demonstrating our commitment to both aesthetics and functionality.
Silver Selection: Curated Quality
Our Silver category represents carefully selected Land Cruisers from trusted restoration partners. While these vehicles aren’t restored directly in our workshop, they undergo rigorous evaluation before joining our collection. Each Silver level vehicle must meet our strict quality standards, backed by comprehensive documentation of all restoration work performed.
The FJ Classics Difference
What sets us apart is our unwavering commitment to authenticity and quality across all restoration levels. Our approach isn’t just about cosmetic improvements – we believe in thorough mechanical restoration and use genuine Toyota parts whenever possible. When original parts aren’t available, our master craftsmen either fabricate precise replacements or restore existing components to factory specifications.
Our team of specialized technicians brings decades of combined experience in Land Cruiser restoration. We don’t simply repair – we meticulously rebuild, replace, and restore every component that doesn’t meet our exacting standards. From addressing complex mechanical issues to preserving historical accuracy, our comprehensive restoration process ensures that each vehicle leaving our workshop represents the best in classic Toyota craftsmanship.
