Chassis replacement cost?

Just my opinion, if you buy a vehicle with a totally rotten chassis, if be wondering what else is suffering. Possibility of a money pit ahead!! When I was 18, I bought a 2A, chassis was reasonable but needed work. After a year or 2 I replaced the rear quarter, ie rear spring hangers and back. Still got him!!
 
Are you selling body parts :eek:
Just buy an already re-chassised on, preferably a plain Jane that's not someone else's frankenstein and do what you want with it
lol, my dad has always wanted me to get a defender as a first car as we both love them and have always had them in the family. My father is willing to give me £5,000 and i already have more than £5,000 that im willing to put towards getting one. Alot of saving up and working has gone into this decision so far and alot more to go! :)

This would have done yer...
 
That would indeed!! Looks amazing. Id rather get a 300tdi with a galvanised chassis than a td5 on a normal chassis and vice versa. Does that sound abour right?
It's completely up to you pal, personally don't know if I'd want another defender :D
But I'm old and like my creature comforts:p
If you're going to buy one then budget depending I'd rather have any engine with a galvanised chassis :D
I've got a 2a 88" in bits waiting for me get the chassis and bulkhead galved then put back together :oops:

Ive been brought up with Defenders, Diso 2's and Range Rover's. At the moment we have a disco 2, defender 110 and a brand new range rover sport so it only seems right that i get a defender 90 (plus i love them more than any of the modern rubbish). I get what you mean, a galvanised chassis seems a good way to go!

:eek:
Everything else on a defender is pretty much cosmetic so if you can get one with the the chassis done then everything else is un-boltable
