Almost anything can be achieved, including a liaison with Ms. Knightly, for enough money.

Converting 2 door to 4 door defender is the same - enough money and you can do it. Once the body is off, you just need the parts from a CSW.

I am having my 110 2-door rear tub modified to take 2 forward facing Exmoor premium seats in the CSW 2nd row outer positions, with access from the rear. I want to keep the load bed length and I don't want the 2 additional doors. Its a bespoke job but I plan to keep the car indefinitely and use it for holidays and work.

Fingers crossed couple of weeks it should be done. Chassis build up is nearly done so tub mods are next on the agenda.

My mechanic is ex military and very competent with fabrication. I wanted to get a CSW tub, cut the floor out, and purchase new bracketry and floor sections as required, but he thinks its better to fabricate.

 

[greyhair]

why not just buy a 110 ??

oh and yes agree she would most defo get it
Lie still love im almost done

 

[timc1967]

We are talking 110 at least I think we are. I am.

How can some people not tell its Photoshop lol identical pillar with mirror arm but mirror missing! Quite funny though and I think a 5 door 90 would look really weird

O yeah 3 door 110 :boom:
Just by a 5 door I say

Is it not just basically a crew cab pickup?

 

[the_wolf]

Could do that as well

Yes obviously a photoshop. 5 door purchase probably cheaper I agree.

For some people, 2 doors is too many.

yep apart from the rear bulkhead

Can never hurt to have two spare wheels as well. How many engines does it have and what size tyres can I fit?

Should that not be in the 101 section? 😁
