The Wilderness Commission

A new color, new interior, and a new powertrain. Not enamored with a dark red metallic exterior and a silver leather interior, the new choice for this D110 eventually fell on a dark green metallic with a classic Alpine White roof and the interior finished in Grampian Beechwood leather. The original 200 Tdi was replaced with a Cummins R2.8 and a Tremec 5-speed, complemented by a rear locker and front LSD. Rear drum brakes were converted to disks, leaving this Defender ready to start yet another chapter in its storied life.
