Land Rover Defender 110 restoration in progress

What We Offer

Rad Rovers handles every aspect of your build — from sourcing the right donor vehicle, through frame-off restoration, to final delivery. No two builds are alike.

Whether your dream is a period-correct classic, a modern restomod with upgraded mechanicals, or a purpose-built overland rig — Jason will work with you to make it happen.

How It Works

The Build Process

Every Land Rover that goes through the Rad Rovers shop gets the same meticulous treatment — whether it’s a frame-off restoration or a targeted restomod.

  1. Discovery Call

    Jason speaks with you directly to understand your vision: how the vehicle will be used, what style you want, and what your timeline looks like.

  2. Vehicle Acquisition

    Source your own or let Jason find the right platform. He evaluates every candidate for structural integrity, numbers matching, and overall viability before committing to a build.

  3. Full Disassembly & Documentation

    Every nut and bolt is removed and catalogued. The frame is inspected, blasted, and either repaired or replaced. This phase sets the foundation for everything else.

  4. Mechanical Rebuild

    Drivetrain, engine, cooling, brakes, suspension — all addressed. Jason sources from reputable manufacturers and Land Rover certified suppliers only.

  5. Bodywork & Paint

    Panel fit, rust treatment, and paint. Period-correct colors available or custom finishes per your spec.

  6. Interior

    Upholstery, gauges, and accessories. Either original-style or modernized depending on your brief.

  7. Final Inspection & Delivery

    Road test, final adjustments, and handoff. Jason walks you through the finished vehicle and everything that was done.
