1964 FJ45LV / From the project archiveA Land Cruiser with a Colorado ranch history.The beginning
It started with an interest that became a business.
The year was 1992 when Cruiser Solutions made its first advertisement in Toyota Trails magazine, of the Toyota Land Cruiser Association, under the name Land Cruiser Solutions.
In this advertisement our new revolutionary Aluminum Body Tub was presented to the greater Land Cruiser community for the first time. Since then we have changed our name and added many products to our inventory.
We offer TOYOTA parts, after-market accessories, used parts, and custom built Land Cruisers. We also offer in-house maintenance and service for your Land Cruiser. Our Land Cruiser Restorations and Service Department has become a recognized leader in the Land Cruiser community.
Your vision, combined with our years of experience, Land Cruiser savvy and product knowledge, will be combined to produce the very best results at the fairest possible price. We pride ourselves on highly personalized services for Cruiser enthusiasts who demand the very best.
In the founder’s words
How Cruiser Solutions began.
Owners and admirers of Land Cruisers always enjoy the sight of a well restored FJ40, FJ45, FJ60 or FJ62, whether driving smartly down a city street or roughing it off the road. For many years I would seek out Land Cruisers to photograph them in their “natural habitat,” whether they were parked on a Boston street or climbing the steep rocky trails of the Smokey Mountains, Moab, Utah, or the famed Rubicon Trail.
I saw and admired how each individual owner has created a one-of-a-kind Cruiser. And with each one that I saw, my desire increased — I wanted to restore a Land Cruiser, to design and create truly unique custom Cruisers that would be both beautiful and functional. My dream gradually took shape, as I restored Land Cruisers for family and friends.
These Cruisers attracted attention, and soon people were calling about body tubs, and power steering upgrades, and suspension systems, paint finishes, upholstery, and all of the hundreds of things you can do to restore and redesign a Land Cruiser. Almost before I knew it, orders for custom built Land Cruisers were rolling in. Cruiser Solutions was born.
2005 marked a great transformation here at Cruiser Solutions. We moved into our state-of-the-art facility here in Hampstead, New Hampshire.

A vehicle should still feel like yours.
The family behind this FJ55 project found and repurchased the Land Cruiser their father had once owned, then brought it to Cruiser Solutions for restoration.
That is the idea behind a generational Land Cruiser: keeping the connection to the vehicle while planning for its next chapter.

Generational Land Cruisers
Built to be driven.
Built to be kept.
Built to be handed down.
A vehicle can carry more than people and belongings. It can carry a family's memories. Good work gives the next owner a chance to add to them.
The way we thinkKeep the character.
Keep the character.
Consider the whole vehicle.
Practical principles for the conversation, whether the request is a small repair or a substantial restoration.
Respect the model.
Account for the particular generation, condition and configuration rather than assume every Cruiser is the same.
Think beyond delivery.
Consider the vehicle as something to use, care for and enjoy after the immediate work is complete.
For this generation. And the next.
The next chapter starts with your vehicle.
A restoration, a repair or a question about what is possible — we would like to hear about it.
