    I've been looking at options of retro fitting a 100/ 110 body on a Disco or Rangie like Mater or THE 109's rigs.
    I am not knowledgeable enough on the recieving chassis here to know what the advantages are. Could someone school me on the relative benefits to be had from this build?

    Is the rangie/disco chassis stronger or something?

    What am I missing?

    By Hybrid, I believe Hall means its a Defender body on a Prius

    It`s a land rover thing If you have seen the film The gods must be crazy, you will know what I mean. But thanks to all that helped in getting ute unstuck.

    Not a Prius ,But several models of lanrover.A bit of Rangie,bit of Defender,bit of series three landy, then a bit of Holden (yep that`s right ) and finally Isuzu. So either hybrid, bitser, mongrel or what ever other term suits.
    Cheers
