One of a kind ground up, full rotisserie style every nut and bolt restoration/custom build

This truck started life as a 1985 Land Rover defender 130. Current owner purchased it in 2011 In 2016 he had a top to bottom complete restoration and customization of the vehicle done. Restoration was completed April of 2016. It has had less than 500 miles put on it since the restoration was completed. The vehicle has been stored inside a climate controlled storage during and after the restoration keeping the restoration looking fresh. No rust on this truck.

About the rebuild and restoration, the vehicle was carefully taken apart and taken all the way down to the frame, and then treated to a galvanized frame and cross-member. The body was then stripped and painted as separate pieces, and then carefully re assembled on the chassis. The interior was treated to dynamatting and soundproofing. All new front doors with power windows and keyless entry, rear doors are brand new as is the truck bed. Leather heated seats, dual power ports. Bluetooth, navigation, and ipod control on the stereo. The outside was painted with high grade PPG paint.

The complete drive train was refreshed. The 300tdi was fitted with AC, new timing belt, new alternator, along with a new radiator to keep this motor running nice and cool. Added an electric fan.
