Description of 1984 Land Rover Defender

Here is a 1984 Defender 90 that started with a 2.5 turbo diesel that needed replacement. So, e took a discovery donor truck and installed the 3.9L fuel injected V8 motor and transmission with auto Lokar shifter.
No rust, ot or any other structural problems.Truck is very, ery clean. Doors, oot wells, rame, ross member and bulkhead are all as solid as can be. See photos. Looks to be a very minor repair on rear cross member but solid nonetheless.
Interior is in incredible shape and solid for being 32 years old. Pictures say it all. Metal is solid all the way around. Seating is in great shape. No tears or rips and is actually comfortable! Rear cargo area is clean and solid as well. Glass is clean and the rear windows are black glass. Some minor scratches here and there visible in photos but nothing serious.
All gauges work as they should as to all lights, ignals, ome light, ipers and even the rear wiper!
Tires and wheels are in great shape as well. Wheels are smooth and shiny with no scuffs or issues. Tires are newer with 80% left. The wheels and tires really complete the look.
This truck runs, hifts and brakes great with no issues. List of motor work done below and was completed by local Master Land Rover Technician.
