For Sale: 1989 Land Rover Defender 110 in Fort Worth, Texas

Land Rover Defender 110 | Signature Series Build Slot | CO156 | LT1 + 10-Speed Prepped

This is a rare opportunity to secure a Signature Series Defender 110 build slot with Classic Overland and step into a project already well underway.

Unit CO156 is approximately 60% through the restoration process, allowing you to bypass early-stage timelines and move directly into final customization and completion.

The exterior is already completed, paired with a steel external roll cage and custom Onca roof rack, giving the vehicle a fully realized stance from day one.

Underneath, the platform has been pre-engineered and prewired for a GM LT1 V8 paired to a 10-speed automatic transmission, delivering the foundation for modern performance and drivability while retaining full-time 4WD.

Why This Opportunity Matters

Classic Overland currently operates with a 12+ month build waitlist for new Signature Series projects.

CO156 is different.

• Already in Fort Worth
• U.S. title processing currently underway
• Build already 60% complete

This allows you to skip the line entirely and move straight into final spec and completion, saving significant time versus commissioning a new build.

Build Overview:

• Defender 110 Signature Series platform
• ~60% through full restoration
• Exterior finish fully completed
• Steel external roll cage installed
• Custom Onca roof rack included
• Prewired for GM LT1 V8
• Prepped for GM 10-speed automatic
• Full-time 4WD via LT230 transfer case
• Interior remains fully customizable

Customization Phase

You will work directly with Classic Overland to complete:

• Interior materials, layout, and stitching
• Audio and technology package
• Wheel and tire selection
• Lighting, bumper, and accessory configuration
• Final driving feel and use case

This is a true bespoke build experience, without the typical wait.

Pricing Structure

• $55,000 initial holding deposit to secure the build slot
• Estimated completed retail: $220,000 – $250,000 depending on final specification

Final pricing is based on selected options and level of customization.

Warranty & Ownership Support

All Signature Series builds include standard coverage at completion.

Optional upgraded warranty programs are available:

• Basecamp (Level 1): 6 months / 6,000 miles
• Outfitter (Level 2): 12 months / 12,000 miles

Extended coverage options can be selected at time of purchase.

Ownership is supported through our Passport to Service program, allowing routine maintenance locally while coordinating major service through our Fort Worth headquarters.

The Bottom Line

A build already this far along, already stateside, and already in title processing represents a significant time advantageover starting from scratch.

Opportunities like CO156 are limited.

If you have been considering a Signature Series Defender, this is the fastest path to getting one built exactly how you want.
