Here is a pic of our build - mocked up in Yellow and Black - will be called "Bumblebee"

Motor going in this month and hope to be on road mid year. Will have 3.5 Rover supercharged with ZF auto, lower transfer gears, Nissan GU diffs (at this stage - keeping stage one diffs as possible alternate), lockers, 35" tyres.
Cab will be a little deeper than normal for seat room and gear.

thanks for that pic slunnie.

That has got me thinking.

I am 6 foot 6 in the old book and not that delicately built and I am thinking it will be a tight fit into a single cab defender.

What if I cut down a 110 wagon. Would it be possible to cut the roof back at the C pillar and close it in there and create a sort of wellback body

this would give me heaps of legroom and storage in the back.

what do you think

Something like this







and pre-35's

It is a b&stard child, no defender/110 parts except chassis. Some rangie and jap bits. Rego should say Land Rover 110 (as determined by chassis), but none here would concur.
