The Land Rover Defender is one of the most iconic off-roaders of all time. Despite being available new in its most modern avatar, the last-gen Defender is still an enthusiast-favorite vehicle. After completing a production run of over 30 years, the last generation Land Rover Defender retired in 2016. We have here today a restored 1988 Land Rover Defender 90 with modern underpinnings housed under the elegant, classic bodywork. The current owner has reported that the SUV was imported from England and the full restoration was completed in 2019 by Osprey Custom Cars. They also added that the SUV has been fitted with a new hot-dip galvanized OEM chassis from another 1988 model Defender 90. Powered by an LS3 V8 and with just 19,350 miles on the odometer, this classic Defender 90 is the perfect restomod SUV for an aficionado.
This 1988 Land Rover Defender 90 looks mesmerizingly attractive. The current owner has reported that, along with the new chassis, this restomod is also equipped with new steel and aluminum doors. It also received a new paint job, flaunting a bold shade of Graphite Metallic, accented by a blacked-out grille and fenders. The hardtop roof of the truck is also painted in Gloss Black and equipped with curved viewing glass on each side. The upgraded black bumpers are wrapped with Charcoal Gray plastic surrounding and equipped with LED lighting solutions. 18-inch Black multi-spoke wheels encircled by a new set of Cooper Discoverer AT3 all-weather tires add to this Defender's visual and purposeful ruggedness. On the inside, the cabin is finished in black, featuring bolstered bucket seats in the front row and jump seats at the rear. The seats are heated and swathed in black leather with white diamond stitching inserts. The steering wheel is a new leather-wrapped Momo unit, while the headliner (also new) is made up of Dark Charcoal suede. Other prominent interior upgrades include a Kenwood infotainment system with Apple Carplay / Android Audio support and twin fingerprint rifle safes under the second-row seating.
Under the hood of this 1988 Land Rover Defender, 90 is a 6.2-liter Chevy LS3 V8, mated to a reported-new 6L80E 6-speed automatic transmission with new cooler lines. 4-wheel drive with a lockable center differential is the drivetrain configuration. Although the power output isn’t specified, it is expected to be around the 426-436 hp ballpark in the LS3 motor’s stock condition. Here, however, the motor is connected to Hooker headers and a Cherry Bomb muffler, which could result in a boosted output. A PCS GSM push button electronic shift selector is responsible for putting that vigor to work effectively, while a digital-analog instrument cluster displays vital vehicle info. With this upgraded powertrain setup, this restomod Defender has been transformed into a potent beast that is also much easier to maintain.

The Land Rover Defender comes from a lineage of over 50 years of off-road excellence. The first Land Rover Series examples hit British roads in 1948, and soon made their way to nearly all countries across the globe. Throughout the years, Land Rover made hundreds of enhancements to the Series, including naming it the Defender in late 1990. Produced in several wheelbases, the 90 was the shortest variant available. While most Defender 90s are typically three-door SUVs, this particular 1993 Land Rover Defender 90 is an interesting, two-door single cab pickup truck variant. Bearing 80,000 miles to its name, this vehicle is now up for sale, and makes an excellent off-road runabout.
If there was one machine that immediately represents the art and joy of off-roading you can rest assured that a Land Rover Defender would be a top contender. For over 50 years this British icon has helped push the envelope in terms of exploring the great unknown. Representing the off-road icon today is none other than this 1995 Land Rover Defender 90. With a reported 72,000 miles on the clock, this low mileage example can be yours to experience an authentic Defender experience in all its glory.
There is a dedicated group of enthusiasts who swear by a Land Rover Series, or Land Rover Defender. Produced since 1948, the Land Rover Series became the Defender in late 1990, when Land Rover switched to a new naming convention for their models. While the Series underwent hundreds of updates throughout its life, including during its Defender time, the external appearance of the vehicle remains roughly similar. This 1996 Land Rover Defender 90 is no different; park it next to a 1948 Series 1 and you’ll immediately notice the similarities. But, there are several differences too. This vehicle has done just under 700 miles after undergoing a comprehensive full frame up restoration including a conversion to left-hand drive for easier driving in the United States.
If you want a sturdy and capable off-roader for your weekend sojourns, it’s hard to bash a classic Land Rover Defender. With a rich history dating back to 1948, the Land Rover Defender (the old one, since there’s a new one now) is well regarded for its off-road abilities and simplistic demeanor. Yes, you might hear some Land Rover jokes, mostly centering around oil leakages, but in reality, these are the hallmarks of poorly maintained and ill-used examples. Choose a well-cared for Defender, such as this Maine-based 1992 Land Rover Defender 110 and you’ll enjoy plenty of happy journeys in it. This vehicle has undergone a frame-off repaint, received plenty of new parts, and even has a more modern and punchy engine under the hood. We’re also informed that all servicing is up to date.
In a nutshell, the Land Rover Defender TRĕK is designed for serious off-road enthusiasts. The exterior itself exudes off-roading traits to the point that it feels wrong to just drive it around the city. From its roots of carrying personnel at war times, the Land Rover Defender nameplate has evolved to become a modern-day adventurer's best friend. And now this staggering example of the 2022 Land Rover Defender 110 S TRĕK Edition can be your off-roading companion. Inspired by the Trek competition that has roots back to the original Camel Trophy competition, this trailblazer features additional equipment that aids you in your escapade. It is currently garaged in Fernandina Beach, Florida. Combining a luxurious cabin with the promise of all-terrain abilities, this Defender will make your next off-roading experience a hassle-free one.
One of the most iconic four-by-fours to come from Britain, the Land Rover Defender nameplate enjoys a long and glorious history dating way back to 1948, when Land Rover’s Series was released. The vehicle’s iconic shape and styling elements continued largely unchanged, save for some updates and refreshes here and there, all the way until 2016. Beneath the skin, however, massive changes took place. That’s why today’s restored 1991 Land Rover Defender 110 is very different to its older brethren. This vehicle was imported from the United Kingdom and is a right-hand drive variant as a result. A full frame-off restoration is reported to have been carried out by Lucra Motors, and the engine has got less than 1,000 miles on it.
Ford’s F-Series extends beyond full-size pickup trucks, and into some seriously potent commercial machines. Cue up the Super Duty, which is now in the fifth generation. Today, we’ve got a specially decked-out fourth-generation 2022 Ford F-550 Lariat that’s outfitted for a specific purpose. Perhaps you can glean what that purpose is from our pictures, otherwise we’ll tell you in the following sections. This 60,100-mile truck currently resides in Key West, Florida, and is looking for a new owner.
The Ford F-150 is probably the most popular half-ton pickup truck around. Hailing from Ford’s popular F-Series with roots in 1948, the half-tonner started as the F-1, then the F-100, and finally became the F-150 later in life. Across our great country, F-150s serve family and work purposes at the same time, and rarely if ever let their owners down – if they do, it’s usually due to poor maintenance or careless driving. While the majority of F-150s are aimed at usability, there are some performance derivatives around as well. Case in point, this 2022 Ford F-150 Shelby Super Snake that tells you all you need to know about it in one word: Shelby. Yes, Carroll Shelby’s iconic tuning outfit didn’t only fettle Mustangs; they were rather open to experimentation on other vehicles too. Today, this 21,848-mile super truck from Texas could be yours, and it’s received a recent servicing too.
Let’s face it, the Jeep Wrangler is a lovable vehicle. With its tough looks and capable off-road chops, it’s the perfect family 4x4 for the outdoorsy family. The fact that you can remove its doors and roof makes things even sweeter. But what if you want a pickup truck instead? Well, Jeep’s got you covered. Say hello to the Gladiator, a Wrangler-based midsize pickup truck that’s been available since 2019. In fact, the front and three-quarters of the side portions of the Gladiator are nearly unchanged from the Wrangler. What follows behind the rear doors is a five-foot pickup truck bed that can bear up to 1,700 lbs, depending on trim and powertrain. So if you want to get your hands on a Gladiator, here’s a 10,000-mile 2022 Jeep Gladiator S 4X4 for sale from Tucson, Arizona. It’s the perfect family vehicle, really.
