ECD Project Invictus

"Project Invictus" is the name of one of the latest masterpieces to roll out of the East Coast Defender Florida-based workshop. This meticulously-rebuilt Land Rover Defender is outfitted for overlanding duty, and is packed with gear for heading into the wilderness. Accessories include a Cascadia rooftop tent and shower arm, a Warn Industries winch, a Front Runner roof rack, Front Runner 20-liter steel jerry cans for water, ARB Tred Pro recover boards, a Midlands CB radio and a portable solar power unit. Based on the 1991 Land Rover Defender D110, this beast is now powered by a new Corvette GM LS3 V8 powerplant that produces 430 horsepower, and is paired with a five-speed manual transmission. It was also fitted with a custom air suspension for a better ride, and is painted in a beautiful Nara Bronze paint, with a satin black roof. watch the video below
