Chassis # XXXXXXXX
Year: 1995
Model: Defender 90 #2910
In November 2000 our 1991 Range Rover GDE burned to the ground on Donner Pass (I-80); this Defender-90 is its replacement. Purchased from Greg Chapel of Sparks, NV., Greg and the D90 had previously competed in the Nevada Trophy a number of times, one year they won the
Trophy Course award! The D90 fits into what we do, and even better
now.

NEVADA TROPHY 2002; here they are in action on the Trophy Course (recovery task).

LAND-ROVER should really look, like a LAND-ROVER!
Note that all the plastic has been removed.
The roll bar mounted
lights have since gone... too much glare on the glass.
Here the D90 leads an "ORE" event through School Bus
Canyon, NV. July 2002. |

the D90, from October 2005 near Bolivia... note ARB winch bumper
and light arrangement. |

Accessories & Modifications:
4.6 litre Rover V8 by WCBR; blue printed, Crane Cam, adjustable timing
gear/chain set, modified cylinder heads (fitted March 2003).
All plastic has been removed from the front; Stainless wire-mess grill
and Series III headlight rims (color keyed) fitted.
ARB Winch Bumper.
WARN M8000 winch.
Bilstein Shocks.
Old Man Emu Springs.
Southdown steel protector’s x3.
All alloy side mounted fuel tank by WCBR.
Lucas 20/20 Driving lights x2.
Hella 550 Fog/Cornering lights x2.
High powered Back-up light.
Special Transfer oil pump system by WCBR.
Good-Year LT265/75R16 MT/R tires fitted.
May 2005: We've since completed
reworking the rear of the D90... it now sports Series IIA type
tail lamps in the original locations. The D90 lamps were removed due
to rotten wiring connectors at the lamps, caused by water & mud being
sprayed on them (not a good set up). Now all wiring is inside the
body. Special diamond plate panels were
made, and IIA/III body cappings fitted. Looks great! The steel wheels
are Genuine LR, powercoated white with new Good-Year MT/R's.
