Project series 3 xmilitary (Norway)

In the autumn of 2018, I bought a series 3, it is originally a car from the Norwegian army a 1975 mod. Previous owner has made some modifications. V8 and power steering from a defender.
This is how it was when I bought it

This winter I have installed matting system from Exmoor, and new seats. Has also painted the landy in a new color the color is NATO green. Soft top bar and hoop set have also been fitted.


Originally they lookt like this LR from the Norwegian Army

After New paint. Very happy with the color.

looks like a good paint job

all down to personal preference, I like the grey and black camo look it had

Agreed re personal preference; I like the new paint!
Those seats look nice.

Convertible in the snow and the top down

Now that’s “ard”
Not that the heater and top would make much difference
Looks nice.

No bumper? Have you just not fitted it yet as I see 1 in previous pics, legal?
But nice work keep going

Nice I prefer the new paint

Any piccies of the engine ? Which gearbox has it got ? presuming manual .... would be better auto IMHO with a V8

And, as Marjon says .... where's the front bumper?
