Overview of 1985 Land Rover Defender 110 LS3 For Sale by Owner

Land Rover’s iconic Defender makes for a fabulous family off-roader that can tackle nearly everything you can think of throwing at it. Building on the legacy of the Land Rover Series of 1948, the Defender nameplate first appeared around late 1990, when Land Rover was adopting naming conventions for their models. Produced in 90 and 110 variants, today’s 1985 Land Rover Defender 110 Restomod is the latter, as you can glean from the title. This means it’s got four doors – 90 variants are two-door. Packed with updates and enhancements, this special build currently resides in Myrtle Beach with less than 8,000 miles to its name.

Exterior and Interior

Wearing a coat of Charcoal Gray paint, this 1985 Land Rover Defender 110 Restomod’s exterior has so many interesting things that you’d struggle to spot them all. Let us help, by telling you, then. For starters, there’s some black roof and wheelarch extensions which beautifully contrast against the gray body. Then, you’ll find an 18-inch set of Land Rover wheels, wearing proper BF Goodrich all-terrain tires. There’s a matching spare tire as well, mounted on the rear wheel carrier. Alpine windows, a safari snorkel, an Alu-Cab canopy, a rear step ladder and a NAS-style tubular rear bumper with integrated receiver hitch are present. Then, we’ve got check-plate trim, LED turn signals and surrounding lighting, roof-rack LED lighting, a custom skid shield, step bars and even a hi-lift jack. The interior of this 1985 Land Rover Defender 110 Restomod comes with black leather upholstery and seating for up to six adults in individual high-back seats. You’ve got features such as air conditioning, a Kenwood Bluetooth-capable stereo, a reverse camera, and new gauges to enjoy. There’s also push-button actuation for the vehicle’s dual-range transfer case.

Engine

Sporting a powerful and rumbly 6.2-liter LS3 V8, this 1985 Land Rover Defender 110 Restomod is definitely not a slouch. This wonderfully tuneful powerplant is paired with a 6-speed automatic transmission and of course, four-wheel drive. Four-wheel power disc brakes are present as well, for enhanced stopping power. Meanwhile, power steering has been installed too, making this beast as easy to drive as possible, especially when carrying out the mundane duties of daily life.

American pickup trucks of the 1950s have become some of the most celebrated platforms for restomod builds, and the 1953 Ford F-100 stands among the most recognizable thanks to its rounded fenders, distinctive grille, and timeless proportions.

This 1953 Ford F-100 Restomod Pickup, showing just 2,058 miles, takes that classic foundation and transforms it into a custom street truck finished in Silver over a Black leather interior.
