Jacobs Farm
Built for a young bloke from Albury-Wodonga, right on the border of NSW and VIC. Having already owned the car for around 6 months, this gave him time to fit a few accessories beforehand.
Kalgoorlie
Our most recent build you see here was built for a traveling couple, originally from Kalgoorlie Western Australia. Whilst in Sydney their plans called for an upgrade to a new LC79 which were happy to ablige.
Loveday
This story starts off with a cruiser that fell into this fellas lap, and an unfortunate start to another's.
Two Years On
Derek's had his tray set up for almost 2 years. Now he's back to have his canopy fitted, this time I have taken some photos and put it up for all to see.
SE BOSS
Our biggest and most modified vehicle to date. On this blog we're going into great detail how this became a thing.
On Track 79
Before me, sits a blank canvas as such, and only the begining of our clients many adventures and great memories.
Meen 79
At first glance it may look like many others on our page, but when you look closer, its unique in its own way. Our client has been very specific how he wanted it built, which we delivered on all aspects.
Rich Returns
Rich is back for more and this time to change his set up from work ute to Cape York tourer
Reinvested
For those who have been following us since the beginning, you may remember this car. This was our first LC79 to come through the shop back in 2018 and the one which started it all, setting our benchmark in LC79 trays and canopies.
Ultimate Workhorse
This would have to be the most comfortable as a 79 series work ute is going to get with a build spec sheet as long as your arm!
Outback Tourer
It took a while for me to get used to the orange suspension, but I must say its definitely grown on us here at the shop.
Jordan Built
This'll be his second tray built by us and due for an upgrade. He's followed our journey since his last build and has always wanted to step it up and get into a new 79 series Land Cruiser
Full Zhoosh
Harrison's a local chap, and over the years he's been dropping into the shop discussing the thought of a future build with us and his current 2014 model 79 series. Instead of selling his pride and joy and replacing it with a new one, he decided to keep the one he knows so well, reinvest and give this old girl the 'Full Zhoosh'
Off Grid
The only vehicle you should trust to be OFFGRID. Our most popular build style on the sandy taupe 79.
Cairns Cruiser
Built for work, this new 2020 plated 79 has features any construction boss would want.
Black Ferrari
No its not a Ferrari, but it bloody well feels like one compared its predecessor.
Single Cab 79
The iconic workhorse of Austraila about to set off for the big lap.
Stretched 79
Bringing you our first 300 stretched, rear coil converted 2020 LC79
The Contender
Its not uncommon for us to build a vehicle for someone we've never met, this ones going to a 'place of little water' in remote WA.
Game Changer
With this recent full vehicle build, we've successfully just made some lucky kids dream come true.
Fully Equipped 79
Our first production built LC79. Giving out clients the opportunity to purchase a ready-build brand new cruiser ready to go, without the wait.
Arctic 79
Our biggest and by far the build to date featuring new tweaks to our design along with a mod list as long as your arm.
Y61 GU Patrol Resurrection
Its not often we work on an older vehicle such as this, but given the owners wish not to let this old girl fade away to a rusty death we were happy to oblige. This build started off with just a simple tray conversion but turned into something much more.
