Land Rover Defender Restoration EP1 - Prep & Prime
Hello everyone and happy New Year! Hope you all had an amazing holiday season.
Big things are happening to the Landy!
We finished our prep & prime a few weeks back, and what was supposed to be the paint job as the next step, has now evolved into something super exciting!
Ben (@the_nomadic_mechanic) has now arrived in Miami & we just started on project engine swap!
Thank you all for being here and watching this dream project of mine come to life. Stay tuned for the V8 swap, new parts install, (& part list) paint job & everything in between. The end result is going to be incredible.
Special thanks to Masterpiece Auto & Key Garage for allowing me to do all this work and share it with you all.

Why Defenders?
มุมมอง 47K2 หลายเดือนก่อน
Hi everyone and thank you so much for all your support! I always get a ton of questions about the Landy, why I love it so much, if it's my daily driver and how my passion for them started, , so l figured I would do a video giving a little backstory. Thanks again for watching! We are almost finished with the body work so I will be posting a video about the prep and prime process soon, before mov...

Hi guys! Welcome to my channel & thank you all for being here! I decided to start this channel to share my 1990 Defender restoration with you all. For those of you that know me already, you know how much I love my Landy - and how this has been a dream of mine since I imported it in 2017.

    Hello, greetings from Costa Rica. The progress looks incredible, and I can't wait to see it finished. I know you have sought advice on how to do everything, but I believe you should consider using some protective eyewear to safeguard yourself from any tiny particles that could harm your eyes. It's always better to be safe!

    I agree & love the "keep it for life - I dont need anything else" approach but arent you a little bit tempted to keep that Discovery and restore it too? Looks very cool and the (interior/exterior) colors are beautiful. 😇

    just so you know, dust damage isn't a fast acting thing, you'll find that out in 30 years. They say you cannot just own one Land Rover! Well, I can't I have a 110 and a D1. Looks a good job and I'm sure the guys don't mind you around, you're better to look at that the other blokes! 😀 Hopefullt when the weather is better I'll be on paint, auto swap and then it's toys and interior for me. After that it's the D1 project, Frank.

      Alu panels on steel frames, for doors and bulkhead and inner wings are steel, rest is alu. unfortunately in wet climates, year, they rust and you get bi-metalic corrosion on the alu panels. The good thing is you can still buy jsut about everything new.

    Restoring them is fun and makes you feel like a champ when you're done. Everyone has newer ones but very litte people take care, restore and drive the classics. They turn more heads than newer ones as well.
