That figure actually seems reasonable given the spec list...

HS 2.8L INTERNATIONAL $10k + fitting
ZF 4 SPEED AUTO WITH A GKN OVERDRIVE $4k for both easy
TRANSFER LOW RANGE CRAWLER GEARS (MAXI DRIVE) $1500+fitting
MAXI DRIVE PORTAL DIFFS, LOCKERS FRONT & REAR
HYDRAULIC REAR STEERING, $ the full rear steer kit was $15-30k ALONE. The portals+lockers+rear steer would have cost $30-50k for the parts alone.
WARN 95OOLBS WINCH WITH REMOTE & PLASMA ROPE $2k
TYRES MICKEY THOMPSON BAJA CLAWS WITH SIDEBITERS 325/80 R16 $2k?

So we are up to $50-70k for just the big stuff.

The starting price seems very reasonable (unlike many others).

And the "show pony" tag Show me a rangie or disco with full chassis and body which would be more capable offroad???

Agreed. Its not a shiny look at me rig, it's got everything you need plus some extras, and ready to mess with the big boys (it would be way more capable then any vehicle I have ever owned). I am actually watching the ad in hopes that it doesnt sell. If it doesnt I will be making an offer and I will be visiting the bank. I want it.

Well said Ben

I think this is an impressive build! but i think i would have it in a gun metal gray

Go crazy Grimace if I could buy it I would. Looks awesome.

Nice bit of gear but I'm a Rangie man til the day I die

Trav

so, hows the disco going trav?
