Reply With QuoteThe late model Santana/Iveco Massif has rear doors able to take a standard pallet. I'm guessing that as it's based on the series three rear end that it would be possible to adapt the rear end of the Defender.

The ones I was reading about may have been early model hardtops with the underseat tank. The fuel filler could have a cover all of its own.Originally Posted by isuzurover

i saved this images and had the bloke send me more. he was selling this on ebay about 2 months ago. im pretty sure this was a series, and a quick, cheap home made. but im sure it could be done with a deefer

The hardest thing would be making them so they don't fall off,troopy's that are used on outback roads are renowned for having the glass fall out of them and having the doors not closing,making them with enough clearance so they don't buckle when the body flex's but keeping them dust tight would be the biggest hassle.Maybe a two piece top/bottom like an RRC would be the go.

That whole hardtop is home made. And hence retains the strength of the rear panels on the lower body. And the tailgate locking on pins adds to the strength. (and yes, it is a Series - no wheel arch flares.)

I agree, I think Bearman has the best solution. Think 110 dual cab with style side tray (whatever LR call that), now remove the roof - use a wagon roof, make up some vertical stays for the rear and there you go! barman has fabric sides on his, but you could always come up with a metal/sheeting 'door' wouldn't be too hard.
