This Florida Shop Will Build Your Dream Land Rover Defender From The Ground Up...For A Price!

Over the past couple weeks, we've shown you two examples of completely custom Land Rover Defenders built by Florida-based East Coast Defender (E.C.D.) Automotive Design. But how exactly do you take an old Defender and build it back beyond new condition? Here's a behind the scenes look at how they do it!

Those old Land Rovers were the best looking. Way better looking than the newer Land Rovers. I wish I could afford 1 of these rebuilds from E.C.D they look awesome.

[@terrorriizz]

the aftermarket doing land rovers job lol

[@tommartin6254]

Looks like a very efficient operation. The employees must be very proud to be employed there.

[@willb3018]

This is one of the few videos that I wish were longer to see more of what goes into these builds.....even though I can't afford it.

[@higg2156]

They even have the "British Leland Legacy Option" where they go through the entire power train and electrical system and install an intermittent dongle which ensures nothing will work consistently providing that authentic frustrating rover experience.

[@biglakebulliesadamg.8715]

😂😂😊

[@karimalameddine5092]

👏👏👏Exactly what I was waiting for, for a while! Thanks 🙂 can't wait to get my Landy!

[@johnleslie9493]

The price is staggering - until you realize that one of these, properly outfitted and cared for, could last for generations. I’m thinking of my grandson one day handing the keys to his son. Great stuff, thanks!

[@BTCSowhat]

My max is 285k. I’m sticking to it. 110 double cab or 130 DC ready to go.

[@redskins1120]

I would replace the Land Rover’s motor and transmission with a Toyota motor and Transmission.

[@WW-wf8tu]

That would make too much sense tho. ;)

[@ColJonSquall1]

I mean, if you ask them to, that company will likely do it.

[@asimalisher8189]

Love this man ❤️

[@ianhamer4494]

Nice work guys, would love work like that done on my 110 ex-army, would love a little more speed lol

[@jasonb4988]

Nathan, great video .. next stop go visit Renntech in Stuart Florida .. 2 hours away . From ECD.

[@Obby_Unsk]

Dream car and dream job. What sort of schooling and training would I need to do to work there?

[@novoxcage]

Amazing video. Need more like this

[@JogBird]

can they make the current defender run for more than a week?

[@WW-wf8tu]

They are not using proper engine choices. ;)

[@shitloveaduck]

I looked it up. Really nice products. I didn’t get a quote, but I’m sure the $149,000 ish starting price was going to be shattered!! Haha. I saw that Land Rover truck back there in red & black??!!! Wonder if they would just build one as a pickup!!! That would be awesome!! The 2 doors are really great looking as well!

[@blezinjean4938]

If I had the money I would prefer the old one vs the new one. The old one is way cooler.

[@NatureRecycleFlorida]

Welcome to Florida Nathan

[@BamaPewPew]

How many man hours was it?

[@zacariaspiedrasdelrio8984]

Roman.... you heard the man! 😂😂😂

[@josephwhiskeybeale]

I wonder if these guys will end up like those nefarious people that were customizing G Wagons....

[@speedRacer05]

What happened to those guys? What made them nefarious? Cocaine in the wheels like DeLorean?

[@josephwhiskeybeale]

@@speedRacer05 pretty sure stealing peoples money counts.

[@youtubecarspottersguide1]

will they be califonia smog legal ?

[@garrydealey1968]

Would love to have one over here in the UK

[@gabrielbeaucage189]

What would the cost to have a 110 imported just as it is?

[@wyo1446]

If I had that kind of money I'd buy Land, never mind the Rover.

[@El-ingobernable]

@1:37 "follow me here" but stands still

[@R.Nelson]

Roman!!...help out Nathan 😎!!...it's for a FAST Cause....I tryd Nathan!!😀

[@WW-wf8tu]

Roman, Nathan now has made a 2nd plea for an ECD vehicle. Please find the drug lords that fund their shop by buying these incredibly expensive hand made machines and do a deal with them so Nathan can return home. :)

[@Craig-wp3pz]

Leave the white leather seats by the bin cheers,I have taste and my Defender earns it's keep!

[@gangullyephraim7423]

I have access to this frame land rover framework incase u need to buy

[@yorkchris10]

Still cheaper than JLR version. They used a Ford motor.

[@speedRacer05]

I wish you would have been able review the driving experience. Really cool stuff, however. Thanks for showing us.

[@WW-wf8tu]

He did do that video. It is posted in reverse order of filming. ;)

[@NathanDAdlen]

Thanks. There are two videos, the 90 and 110 on TFLnow.

[@trabertgraneau3323]

I wonder how much these SUVs cost?

[@ColeSpolaric]

I spoke with Roman, he said your request for a raise is denied.

[@colemangolf1]

Vote for Nathan to take over TFL offroad and Truck Host!

[@buzzpedrotti5401]

I thought that's what Rover was paid to do...

[@jakubstrumillo]

Well i build my Discovery "Camel Trophy - Tribute" myself :D (With a help of few friends)

[@lanceripplinger8352]

I could build a very nice house for that crazy amount of money.

[@mfhairstream6812]

Why do they bother with the old one

[@noway234]

I'll buy that for a dollar!

[@mauricehess537]

Another segment for people with more money than sense !

[@jonathanphillips3612]

That’s why we in the South are BETTER!!! Lol

[@richard9436]

For people with more dollars than sense

[@p6102zrfxe]

What all need to be done to not get Christmas tree on dash....

[@marcusthorpe7688]

Why don't they just call it a NEW land Rover Defender because you are basically buying a new vehicle 🤔

[@vincentpoole7588]

TFN. Far too many OK Baby Boomers with too much bloody money dudes ? Land Rover Defender Classics are driven by people who aren't part of the human race here Downunder and as a Rangie owner, can't stand the Def'C seating ! V.

[@celteldealer]

bro why waiste money buy a new RAPTOR or TRX

[@stanludorf2311]

Because anyone with a decent credit score can buy a new TRX or Raptor, these are toys for the rich.
