The build in detail

Body and paint

For the respray the vehicle was partly dismantled and then properly reassembled. The body got a full respray in the classic Land Rover colour Grasmere Green, and many fittings, seals and fasteners were replaced.

Heritage exterior

Heritage parts complete the classic look: a silver grille, heritage headlight surrounds, stainless steel lamp rings, a new front bumper, new mirrors with arms, an Offroad-Monkeys aluminium fuel cap and stainless steel sill plates.

Wheels, chassis and soft top

ANR Classic steel wheels in Limestone with 265/75 R16 BFGoodrich All-Terrain KO3, inspected and approved. Plus a Mohair soft top in sand with clear windows. The rear crossmember was de-rusted and protected with Brantho Korrux.

Interior and mechanics

Inside: heated Td4 comfort seats, canvas covers in sand and a Trekfinder sports steering wheel. Plus updated electrics with an Ampire CPR60 radio, FM/DAB antenna and LED headlights (Osram Night Breaker). Mechanically, the dual-mass flywheel, clutch, bearings, air filter box and battery were replaced.
