1988 Land Rover Defender 110 Double Cab Pick-Up

Description

Key Points: Full Restomod Conversion, Bilstein Suspension, V8 Engine Upgrade, AP Racing Brakes

The Land Rover Defender is an iconic classic 4x4, developed from the original Land Rover series. A British equivalent of the Second World War-derived Willys Jeep, it gained a global reputation for durability due to its steel ladder chassis, aluminium alloy bodywork and detuned Rover engine. It incorporated significant changes compared to the traditional series Land Rovers, such as adopting coil springs front and rear, as well as a locking centre differential. Production of the model began in 1983 as the Land Rover 110, a name which reflected the 110-inch wheelbase. The Land Rover 90, with 93-inch wheelbase, and Land Rover 127, with 127-inch wheelbase, soon followed.

This 1988 Land Rover Defender 110 has undergone a comprehensive ‘restomod’ process and is now fitted with a raft of eye-catching upgrades, including a new galvanised chassis and bulkhead. Originally a standard 110, the rear has been cut as part of a double-cab pickup conversion and it now features a removable soft-top roof, with additional strength added via a Land Rover roll bar. Stopping power now comes from AP Racing brakes, and the upgraded Bilstein suspension has been fitted with front and rear anti-roll bars. Under the bonnet, its Rover V8 has been rebuilt and expanded to 4.6-litres by John Eales of J.E. Developments, and it now features a K&N air filter, a Holley Sniper EFI carburettor and a custom four-into-one exhaust. Producing a mighty 260bhp, it drives all four wheels through a five-speed manual transmission and a rebuilt two-speed transfer box.

Cosmetically, the bodywork has been repainted in Aintree Green, and the car rides on a set of black 16-inch five-spoke wheels with BF Goodrich All-Terrain T/A tyres. The cabin has been retrimmed in tan leather, while the loadspace is equipped with four inward-facing seats, which gives the car a maximum capacity of ten occupants. All of the ancillaries have been replaced, along with the badges. Other modifications include a central locking system, a Pioneer head unit with rear-view camera, a Momo Protipo three-spoke steering wheel and a Morel HiFi system.
