We Accidentally Became a Classic 4WD Workshop | What’s in the Workshop

What’s in the Workshop | Classic 4WD Edition

This week in the workshop, something unexpected happened - we realised just how many classic four-wheel drives we’re now restoring and rebuilding.

When we founded the Modern Classic Cars Foundation, we imagined classic cars as lightweight sports cars from the UK, Europe, and the US. But as these vehicles age, classic 4WDs are facing the same problems, and owners are struggling to find skilled workshops to look after them properly.

In this episode, Dave walks through the workshop and gives a behind-the-scenes look at the diverse range of classic 4WDs currently under our roof, including:

🔧 Mercedes G-Wagon - now powered by a 6.2L Chev LS V8
🔧 1940s Willys Jeep - apprentice-built restoration for Soldier On
🔧 Land Rover Series III - finishing restoration work and drivability upgrades
🔧 1988 Toyota Land Cruiser (62 Series) - full Modern Classic Cars Foundation resto-mod build
🔧 Datsun/Nissan Patrol - electric power steering development project

From subtle drivability improvements to full bare-metal restorations, this episode shows how classic four-wheel drives are becoming an important part of preserving automotive history - and training the next generation of specialists.
