    My primary school reading comprehension has failed me.

    I'm gonna go back and say we need pictures of...well...everything. Starting to sound like a series that has been replaced with a lot of defender.

    Or designa chassis. Those are nice.

    There is a 1967 109 on ebay that says retored but is a 109 mwith a defender front. He wants a lot and it is nice but I would think that kind of money would go to a restored original landy.

    Again sweet looking rig but is it worth $36995. Thoughts to the group? I know you have all seen it.

    Worth a look or a laugh, but $37 grand???

    A 109 with a Deffie "front" is not a restoration.

    Got a link or do we play 20 questions again?

    Yeah...That's an old 109 with a different set of wings, bonnet and rad support panel and a different engine.

    It's what you call a "resto-mod". While it does have some nice upgrades like a big heater, it is far from an original "frame off" restoration. If you're OK with that....

    That one would require a real close inspection. Look at the picture of the outer door latch handle, looks like some rust on the inside of the pocket missed the "cover up" layer.

    Odd that you described it as a Defender in the OP--Usually sellers of these Defenderizations list it as a Defender or at least have "Defender" in the title somewhere, but on this listing the seller makes it plain that this is a 1967 Land Rover 109. In fact, I don't see Defender" anywhere in the listing at all, though I only scanned it very quickly.
