1983 Land Rover Defender 110

1983 LS GM Gen IV powered 5 door wagon. 330hp with a 6 speed automatic transmission. 100% legal import Left Hand drive. Ebay is not recognizing the vin SALLDHMV2AA189352
This truck is truly the best of both words. Classic first year defender styling, exposed galvanized capping with two piece doors and the reliability and power of the LS drive train. You can have this vehicle serviced anywhere and engine parts are available from your local auto parts store.
Just drove it 200 miles this weekend averaging 80 mph with barely a foot on the pedal burning just about half a tank of gas. This truck is quiet and subdued around town with loads of power on tap.
Engine is a an all aluminum LH6 V8 out of a 2008 Silverado with 95,000 miles
Transmission is a 6l80e 6 speed automatic out of a 2008 Cadillac escalade with 52,000 miles.
The truck is cosmetically rough but mechanically sound. Front seats are ratty and should be recovered same with the headliner. Frame and firewall are solid but the rear crossmember has been patched and should be replaced at some point. Had planned to do a complete cosmetic restoration but the exposed galvy and patina paint grew on me so i left it alone. I love that this truck is a sleeper. Brand new Rubicons will be left in your dust wondering what the hell is in that old rover!
Front doors are solid. Middle door bottoms will need attention. Have a set of full roll up doors if interested along with newer sliding rear windows.
If you want a beauty build this is not your truck. If you want a beast out of the box you can take offroad and to the beach this summer without worrying about body work than you won't find a vehicle much more fun than this one.

The truck will come with a clear Florida title. I cannot advise if it will pass smog/emissions in your state but Idon't know that this conversion has been done and made smog legal. For starters you will need to install a Y pipe with catalytic converters and other emissions controls. I can help point you in the rightdirection but make no reps or warranties regarding smog oremissions legalities of this vehicle.
