2002 Defender 110 Td5 DCPU Keswick Green

[Wanted] Early 90 for rebuild

Probably a bit of a short straw here but I am looking for an early 90 as the donor vehicle for a rebuild. Engine type not important as it will be replaced.

I am ideally looking for late 80s model which is tatty but fairly complete and must have V5. If it has a scrap of MOT remaining and is drivable this is a big bonus.

Chassis corrosion not an issue unless it is terminal (e.g. rear x-member/quarter chassis are fine). Body type not important but would need to be mostly complete. Cosmetics not important.

Have missed out on a few recently which fit the bill and have been 1500-1800 with MOT but ebay is full of one which are mostly scrap and sell for stupid money.

Does anyone have one which is taking up space or know of one?

Willing to travel a good distance for an MOTd vehicle or slightly less distance for one without.

Cheers,
Steve 02' 110 TD5 Double Cab Rebuild Thread

That looks like quite good. What sort of money are we talking.

Had a Perkins Prima in my 109" years ago and it was a cracking engine.

What do you think still needs doing before an MOT?

mot needs are

finish the wiring as we have replaced all the lights.

finish the service and see how she fares

she starts very well shows good oil pressure (working dash gauge)

been dry stored for some time

bulkhead and foot wells have been repaired to a high standard .doors are in fair condition.

the main reason i bought was its a genuine 2 owner car from new.the last owner had it 20 yrs before hiding in in the barn for a few years while he had a company car
