For Sale: 1988 Land Rover Defender in Gordonsville, Tennessee

Defender 110-Inspired Custom 4x4 | Cummins R2.8 Diesel | Tremec 5-Speed | Built on Jeep JK Platform

Blending the timeless styling of the legendary Land Rover Defender 110 with the reliability and drivability of a modern Jeep JK, this exceptional custom build offers the best of both worlds. Built using an Aqualu Bravo aluminum body mounted on a Jeep Wrangler JK Unlimited chassis, it delivers classic British looks with dependable, easy-to-service mechanical components.

Power comes from a Cummins R2.8 turbo diesel crate engine paired with a Tremec TR4050 five-speed manual transmission and a Jeep Rubicon NP241OR transfer case with a 4:1 low range. Factory Rubicon Dana 44 axles front and rear, a 4-inch Superlift suspension, and 35-inch tires mounted on Method Race Wheels provide excellent capability both on and off the road. The Cummins diesel offers outstanding torque along with fuel economy of approximately 19-20 MPG, making this Defender-inspired build equally suited for long-distance touring and off-road adventures.

The lightweight Aqualu aluminum body is finished in a custom Land Rover-inspired green and complemented by a fiberglass hood, custom roll cage, bespoke soft top, custom front and rear bumpers, rear swing-away spare tire carrier, Corbeau bucket seats, modern gauges, and auxiliary lighting. Every aspect of the build was carefully executed to create a vehicle that captures the iconic appearance of a classic Defender while benefiting from modern engineering and reliability.

Whether you're looking for a distinctive overland vehicle, a weekend adventure rig, or a unique showpiece, this Defender-inspired custom stands out wherever it goes. Combining classic styling, modern performance, and outstanding craftsmanship, it is a rare opportunity to own a truly one-of-a-kind 4x4 built to be driven and enjoyed.
