I don't think a full chassis swaps viable with a D2 unless you're going to keep it no matter what. You'd just lose too much money selling it. Be good if there's enough sound metal left to weld to. If it wasn't for the chassis rot D2's would probably be best appreciating LR after defenders :(

Yeah because bodyworks easier to repair than chassis swaps are to carry out :p
For me anyway! Best thing about series/90/110s you don't need a bloody big lifty thing to get the body off
