Our Series restoration process
Our Series restoration process
At Landycenter, we manually re-build classic Land Rovers that will take you back to the 60s, the era when motoring was still pure.
Landycenter’s offer:
a completely restored Series Land Rover! A fully rebuilt vehicle with new quality parts, just like it was when it rolled out of the factory.
We purchase Series II and III Land Rovers from whole Europe in a condition good enough to restore.

During the restoration we try to preserve as many original parts as possible, because this increases the value of the restored vehicle. We replace all worn parts with new quality ones.
We sandblast all car parts and we start to rebuild the vehicle with quality metal pieces. We paint all elements in several layers of anti-corrosive paint and we galvanise metal parts. After repairing aluminium and metal parts of the body work, we spray paint those in and outside.
Landycenter ensures that all work processes take place under one roof and one managerial and technical ownership: body work, painting, drive-train reassembly, gearbox and engine rebuild. We never outsource activities but instead keep an personal watch on the development of newly built, classic Land Rovers.

Chassis
This is the most vulnerable part of a Land Rover. Aggressive corrosion happens mostly here. Professional care and experience is needed here to make sure that at a later stage all body parts fit nicely.

After thorough cleaning, we disassemble everything. We restore all the parts that are still good enough to maintain and replace those that are too worn to keep.

Suspension
We try to preserve original parts as much as possible, but upon client’s request, we can install modern leaf springs and shock absorbers. In most cases we replace worn parts such as the swivel pin, bearings, swivel pin housing, etc. After disassembling the leaf springs, we restore them completely.

It is often quite a challenge to restore the battered aluminium body parts. In our workshop you can find all equipment and experience necessary for obtaining a fresh new look. We paint the parts inside and outside with special aluminium paint and we reassemble all parts with original British screws. In this way, we can create focus on body lines and shape.
Electrical system
In most cases we completely replace the wire harness with a quality modern version which looks like exactly like the original one. We check, clean and repair all dashboard instruments.
