There’s white, and there’s WHIIIIIIIITTTE

Currently on eBay if you care to investigate further.

I wish I could find a picture of an example but there was a tuning style in the 80's that was called Euro White where every thing was painted white. Think E30 BMW and Nissan Maxima and mini trucks. This totally reminds me of it :wink

white on white with a black bumper... all it needs is a booster seat for Tattoo and it would be Mr. Roarke ready...

Any Fantasy Island fans???

The fit and finish actually seems decent...someone clearly dumped a ton of money into this thing...however, it’s tough to look. Just get a Jeep instead.

With all the time and money spent they just couldn’t quite get the underside of the bonnet refinished. 🙄

I almost dont want to post this because of the effort and engineering, but the kahn & bedliner necessitates the post.

It has a lot of work done to it (LS, 6L80E trans, Curry diffs, and 4 link), but some of it is close but no cigar. That dash is horrible, and what's up with the RMI and turn and bank instruments??? And he paid $48k for the truck he destroyed doing this, plus "invested" $322k making it "perfect"- wonder how much it sold for.
$110K.

I hope it wasn't an "investment".

If you trudged through those text blocks you deserve a trophy. It's yet another case of:

I've put some thought into it and I think we should revise threads like this to be less negative and childish. I think instead of saying a Land Rover sucks we should say, "I don't like what was done to this Land Rover, but it's cool someone else does."

Seems a bit verbose and tender. I believe it's possible to explain why the Flying Huntsman (for example) is objectively built in poor taste (sucks), but most of the time it's self evident. How about "Land Rovers that keep you up at night", or in honor of Jimmy540i's infamous BMW page, "Land Rover Nightmares".
