Building my dream truck in 25 minutes - Twisted Land Rover Defender

[@AlwynDeux]

That was amazing, the best 25 minutes I’ve ever spent on KZbin. Great work, well done. However, I don’t think you could have completed the job without the help of your little helper, super pup. 😊

[@MagnusMarthinsenWoodsman]

Thank you so much for the kind words. Really nice to hear! :) - Magnus

[@rolloutcarlo]

I agree!

[@frankolaws8870]

Couldn't have said it any better mate lol I love the short movie❤

[@DuanDao]

I can totally appreciate that you did this without any specialized tools and made it yours. Looks great to me!

[@brianpaige4884]

From a Yorkshire man.... imitation is the best form of flattery... well done sir....

[@MagnusMarthinsenWoodsman]

It sure is.. Thank you Sir. I have spent lots of time in Yorkshire in my childhood, in Goathland. Beautiful area. - Magnus

[@promptjungle]

Being a Defender fanatic who has lived in Sweden, UK and Norway, this felt like was made for me. Enjoyed every second of it, thnx man.

[@MagnusMarthinsenWoodsman]

Awesome, thank you for watching! ;) - Magnus

[@jimo680]

Wow. Incredible. Well Done! What a cool truck. Love that defender. I hope Charles recognizes the twisted sticker as a salute to his company for the design inspiration and twisted parts you use. If I were him, I'd appreciate the shot with a wink and a nod by sending you a congratulations letter and a twisted cover for the back bed during winter months. Best to you.

[@MagnusMarthinsenWoodsman]

Thank you so much! Yes, that sure would be nice. And the reason for the stickers truly is an salute to him and Twisted. :) - Magnus

[@MightySchultz]

Looks great. Especially like the center console, made me think of what J.Ward is pumping out in the interior department at ICON . Cheeky stickers too

[@waynemitchelson5152]

Built in true Land Rover style and spirit Magnus. A lovely film made with so much effort. A Happy new year to you 👍🏼

[@MagnusMarthinsenWoodsman]

Thanks Wayne for keeping an eye on my projects! Always appreciated that. And a happy new year to you to. - Magnus

[@Radingtonbear]

Bloody good work man. Hope you’re enjoying using it. A vehicle you can be VERY proud of.

[@magicnik8881]

I'd never expected a result soo good! You absolutely nailed it, love the result!

[@adamgriss2025]

Excellent work especially since it was so budget conscious as opposed to many of the builds I see on KZbin!

[@MagnusMarthinsenWoodsman]

Thank you for watching! Yes, it is possible to create stuff by being creative. :) - Magnus

[@martinhogan5970]

Loved it. And the atmosphere you created surrounding the build. You had me at ‘taking it to my shop’…

[@MagnusMarthinsenWoodsman]

Thank you so much for watching! Glad you enjoyed it. ;) - Magnus

[@King_TuTT]

the puppy is so cute. walking fluff ball. love'em

[@crionidel]

14:30 the pupper is screaming "if not ball...why ball shape?" so confused ahaha

[@robt2151]

A very successful project and an excellent report. I have one of the original '127' HiCaps with the stretched chassis, it's now 40 years old. It has served me well.

[@Skott62]

I think you did a great job converting it. It looks great. I'm sure you will have many more happy memories in it.

[@MagnusMarthinsenWoodsman]

Thank you! I hope so too :) - Magnus

[@hierroxidao]

Great work!! Money cant buy the proud and satisfaction of doing it by yourself

[@MagnusMarthinsenWoodsman]

Thank you! Indeed, there is something special by building something yourself. - Magnus

[@normanboyes4983]

Enjoyed that - lots of levels and enjoyed them all. Well done.👍

[@MagnusMarthinsenWoodsman]

Glad you enjoyed it! Thank you. - Magnus

[@ralphroberts7146]

Fantastic build, you really nailed it. You did what was needed and nothing wasted, I love it. I owned a double cab pick up for a couple of years, great machines

[@MagnusMarthinsenWoodsman]

Thank you! Yes, it's great cars. - Magnus

[@electivire1001]

Lovely job, the centre console is a nice touch.

[@MagnusMarthinsenWoodsman]

Thank you! - Magnus

[@JosesGaraje]

I just started my channel about my build taking a FJ40 Toyota Land Cruiser and turning it into a FJ45 pickup. Many of the items you worked on here are exactly the same as I plan to do such as taking the fiberglass top, cutting it to fit a pickup body and fiber glassing it together. I've been featuring videos about the small but necessary items that need to be done to the truck now during the winter time in Maine USA. Your truck looks good and gives me inspiration.

[@puttarr]

One of the best transformations ,I have seen on Land Rover Defender 130, this nice with the skills what you have and just like the Twisted and was wondering what is the bread of your little helper, super pup.

[@MagnusMarthinsenWoodsman]

Thank you very much! My dog is an Alaskan Malamute. ;) - Magnus

[@AhmedIlyas]

randomly found your video. its literally my dream truck. fantastic job.

[@MagnusMarthinsenWoodsman]

Awesome! Thank you for watching. - Magnus

[@MihailBFC]

brilliant little video! the car looks very good, and you put it all in a 25 min video! wow...

[@MagnusMarthinsenWoodsman]

Thank you! - Magnus

[@howardtowler6146]

Best restoration video ever.

[@MagnusMarthinsenWoodsman]

Hehe, thank you so much! :) - Magnus

[@colinwatt00]

This is really great filmmaking and editing. I’m envious.

[@MagnusMarthinsenWoodsman]

Thank you very much Colin! ;) - Magnus

[@danikai2562]

Brother-incredible truck!! Super envious of this setup. Well done!

[@MagnusMarthinsenWoodsman]

Thank you! - Magnus

[@newagelumberjack]

This was incredible! You had a vision and you just made it happen. You are incredible

[@MagnusMarthinsenWoodsman]

Thank you very much for your kind words, means a lot. :) - Magnus

[@cml8312]

Beautiful project, outcome and video. Congratulations!

[@robertocastillo2260]

Congratulations, you have done an excellent job and the result is magnificent. Now you have an exclusive vehicle. That color is spectacular. Greetings Rob.

[@MagnusMarthinsenWoodsman]

Thank you! Yes corris grey is a beautiful color - Magnus

[@JP-446]

Brilliant video Magnus. An inspiration to go out and build a dream truck. Well done!!

[@MagnusMarthinsenWoodsman]

Awesome, thank you for watching. - Magnus

[@Texas_Heat7]

Hello from Texas! Awesome conversion!

[@MagnusMarthinsenWoodsman]

Hello Texas! ;) Thank you. - Magnus

[@bishopcorva]

Tam doing his best to help. Give all the bits a mouthing of approval. Helper aside, excellent starting point with the troopy. Likewise the finish looks quite bonkers good as well. If I had the option, I'd have both. Probably with different engines but that's just me. Thinking more about it, if the wrecked double cab is still available, might be fun to get it as well to make it into a safari or total soft side. Like the roof, door uppers and rear are heavy duck canvas with vinyl widows. See about sourcing up windshield hinges for when the roof and door tops are off, just fold the screen down.

[@MagnusMarthinsenWoodsman]

Tamarack was a great little helper. :) Not sure if the double cab is still around, I think it might be gone by now...Thx for watching! - Magnus

[@bishopcorva]

@@MagnusMarthinsenWoodsman Groovy indeed, if it's gone then it wasn't meant to be. It's seemingly always the thing, only think about different ideas after the point it's too late to execute them. Be safe and stay warm for this winter and many more to come.

[@nealcarpenter7364]

There was a UK zombie show with a 110 pickup in dark grey. It was beautiful. I've wanted one ever since. Amazing to see you build your own.

[@MagnusMarthinsenWoodsman]

Thank you for watching! ;) - Magnus

[@vegasmike966]

Beautiful work you did an amazing job transforming it into your dream !!

[@MagnusMarthinsenWoodsman]

Thank you, I did my best. ;) - Magnus

[@pandrop490]

Brilliant job ! The beauty of the defender is that you can strip the body in half a day. We rolled our defender in Portugal and had the bodywork sorted in no time, you can cut and chop and change it around to suit your needs which you cannot do with any other brand. Still the best 4X4 by far.

[@MagnusMarthinsenWoodsman]

Thank you! Indeed, great cars. - Magnus

[@Aj1981Mr]

You did a brilliant job on the conversion. I respray my old series 3 land rover on my drive way, when the weather warms up I hope to do it well like you have.

[@MagnusMarthinsenWoodsman]

Thank you! Best of luck with your Series 3. ;) - Magnus

[@buckroger5850]

Great conversion. greetings from northern California 🖖

[@MagnusMarthinsenWoodsman]

Thank you! - Magnus

Fantastic results! I think it looks great and that you build it yourself makes it even cooler than buying one from Twisted!! Built Not bought! Greetings From Canada .

Thank you! - Magnus

Cute pup! I love Huskies! Great work on the Defender too! You did well

[@MagnusMarthinsenWoodsman]

Looks incredible and love the color. Don’t even bother with a lift but a more aggressive sounding exhaust would compliment the look of this beast

[@MagnusMarthinsenWoodsman]

Thanks man! - Magnus

Spot on mate. Looks amazing. Love the colour

[@MagnusMarthinsenWoodsman]

Well done Magnus, thank you for the video. Your work is inspirational in that you did it without all the tools, garage space, etc many other sites have. Great work. Greetings from Paradise, NL, Canada.

Thank you very much! - Magnus

[@p47rr]

Congratulations. It came out amazing. I all ways wanted a Husky. Best friend for sure.

The Yorkshire chapter announcements was a nice twist to the build doc 😆 Good job fella you nailed it a super smart transformation build 👍

[@danielgreen77]

Fantastic work well done! I’ve now sold my 110 (needing to drive too many miles across the UK, so needed a more modern car) but I spent 7 years upgrading my 110. A quick, low cost and immediately impactful upgrade was fitting the SlickShift aluminium gear shift piece to the stick, I think you have the TD5 which I think is £100 for the SShift, only takes 30mins to fit and stops gear shift feeling like stirring porridge! :) happy driving

[@MagnusMarthinsenWoodsman]

Thank you! Nice, I have to check out that slick shift. ;) Thx - Magnus

[@fightington]

This is more in spirit with the Landrover thing than a 350,000 yuppie toy. Good vid. Cool doggie. Beautiful country

[@MagnusMarthinsenWoodsman]

Thank you very much! - Magnus

[@bramafilm]

What a great video! I’ve thought about doing the same conversion to mine but using the wagon’s squared off rear wall and roof instead. Yours is great inspiration so thank you 🙏🏼.
