Hey there, I’m Richard, the guy behind Designed and Built.
Yep, I’m an engineer, but trust me, I’m not your average one. I’ve got a knack for turning cool ideas into even cooler stuff.
You can catch all the action on my YouTube channel, where I’m all about showing you cool ways to mod your cruiser.
Let’s hang out and explore this wild world of design and engineering together!
I needed another release during lockdown as I wasn’t able to ride my dirt bike/mountain bike so I decided to tackle a big project in the shed. I picked the best looking cab (40 series), the best Landcruiser chassis (80 series) and the best engine that my budget would allow (the mighty Barra)!
I honestly couldn’t answer that, I stopped counting as it helped me sleep better at night…
I am generally pretty content with the build, however one thing I regret not doing is making the cab 50mm longer for a little extra leg room!

YouTube videos will be released when they are ready. As there is a lot of time which goes into the design and build of custom products it is very hard to make weekly videos. We would rather focus on high quality videos with higher quality end products than bring out sub standard content!
Richard does! Although he has help from his mates and is always exchanging a beer or two for someone to get a shot of him!
No! The whole point of the channel is to inspire you to get stuck in yourself :)
