1990 Defender 90 - NO RESERVE-Right Hand Drive-Turbo Diesel-FREE SHIPPING IN US

Description for Land Rover Defender 1990

To answer a lot of questions that a lot of buyers might have, I have listed the entire story/history on this amazing truck!

I purchased it at the end of last year from the UK as a defender for myself.

Before purchasing the Defender I made sure that it was in great shape with a minimal amount of rust and it was. If you would like before pictures of the Defender when I imported it please let me know.

I was able to successfully import the Defender and because the 90's come with such slow engines, I imported a TDI engine from a newer model separately (you have to import the vehicle with the motor that was originally installed).

I sent the Defender and the TDI engine to a shop in Chicago that does motor builds and swaps where they built/swapped the engine to the TDI engine. The shop in Chicago will give a warranty on the engine and can also answer any questions you have related to the motor and the swap. If you would like the contact info to the shop please text/email me and I will send you the info.

After the engine swap was complete I sent the Defender to the body shop. They stripped the truck down, fixed a few very small rust patches on the roof (the right way by actually replacing the metal) and then Rhino lined the inside and outside to give it the amazing look that it has today. We sent the coll cage out to get powder coated and replaced the seats in the front and benches in the back. We also installed the new lights (all around including the LED bars), new seat belts, and made sure everything was mechanically sound. If you would like the number to the guy at the body shop to ask him any questions please text/email me and I will send you his info.

After the body shop I brought the Defender over to my car audio guy and he installed a bluetooth radio as well as some custom speaker boxes in the back.

Here is the part that is the saddest! As I drove my completed Defender home for the first time excited ear to ear, I pulled into my marking garage (I live in downtown Chicago) and the truck wouldn't clear the entrance. I was pretty upset and spent the summer parking the truck in an outside lot and looking for a parking garage that was walking distance while driving and enjoying all summer. I was unable to find a parking garage that was walking distance with enough clearance so now that it's winter I decided that I would sell it and start over again with my import but this time I am going to do a 2 door G Wagen because I have confirmed it will clear.

I am really hoping this great Defender gets a new home.

I have pictures of the Defender "before" as well as pictures of the undercarriage and contact info to whomever worked on it. Please email/text me for any requested information.

The Defender is Titled and Plated in Illinois so you don't have to worry about any title issues. The transaction will happen like any old vehicle sold in the US.

I am including FREE SHIPPING to anywhere in the 48 states. This would be open transport and you can elect to pay extra for enclosed transport or insurance.

eBay has issues with VIN's on these defenders so the VIN isSALLDVAB7FA430990 even though it is listed the way it is in the auction. Check out other defenders, they are listed the same way!

Please only serious bidders. Thank you!
