    Video Updates

    This Cruiser is down to the frame and in many pieces. The wiring harness is much worse than first expected and will need to be completely replaced with a good (better) condition used harness. The cowl is in decent condition with limited work required to the cowl mount/toe board area. Sand blasting has been done and many of the body parts will be placed into primer soon. We will also re-seal the Chevy (Chevrolet as GM would like everyone to say now) 350 as well.

    This Land Cruiser comes to us from Montana via Virginia for a full restoration. Watch as we install our Aluminum Body Tub onto this V8 powered Land Cruiser.
