My son and I had a great opportunity last weekend to tour a new business in Hobe Sound.  My son is a great enthusiast of a local Land Cruiser Club which he has been an active member in for many years.  For anyone who is also an enthusiast or even has a somewhat interest you need to check out this location at 11305 SE Federal Hwy (US 1) in Hobe Sound.  They have or can get you parts you need to restore your own cruiser and other trucks. .  If you want they can do a restoration for you from a stage 1 all the way to a complete tear down  and rebuild.
