In well over a decade of dealing in Land Rover vehicles, this is a veryspecial truck that I am honored to present.
1994 Land Rover North American SpecificationDefender 90 Soft Top #1398
V.I.N. SALDV2284RA942974
This Defender has was purchased new at Hornburg Land Roverandlived its entire life in Brentwood (Los Angeles)California (far enough from the coast to not be exposed to salt air/waterbut no so far inland that its been exposed to the heat so the paint, seals, rubber, soft top etc are not baked).
As a result there is NO rustwhatsoever.
Perfect bulkhead.
Perfect floors.
Perfect door sills.
Perfect doors.
Perfect door hinges.
Perfect chassis.
This vehicle has never been in an accident.
This vehicle has only 100,985 original miles.
This is a one owner vehicle (you would be purchasing the vehicle directfrom the original owner, not fromme).
I believe the full soft top is the original but that it was not used until fairly recently as it is in near perfect condition.
Unlike many of the Defenders for sale today that have been restored enough to look good at first glance and in pictureswhich are rusted and rottenunderneath fresh paint, new wheels and trimso someone can make a buck flipping,this vehicleis an honest, unrestored survivor.
This Defender isoriginal in the sense that it has only been maintained (and maintained well)since it was originally built up in 1996-1997
What you see is what you get. No body filler, no repaint.
This vehicle has some special history...
In 1996 my client got together with Greg Jevneand based on myresearch the build up thatpursuedended uplaunchingarguably the most coveted Land Rover upgrades to date and theSafari Gard brand.
Greg had this truck for over a year in 1996-1997toprototype and tousepersonallyto promote the then newproduct line and brand at a cost of well over 20K to my client. This vehicles extensive build up has been documented innumerouspublications as well as some of the many adventures this truck has been on.

The Autocheck vehicle history report apparently shows 2 owners which is wrong. We have extensive proof that my client has owned this vehicle since new.
