I understand that. It's not radically altered just a standard Land Rover front. On a standard Land Rover Chasis albeit a shorter one with standard Land Rover suspension and axels.

The front suspension might be standard - but the rear one won't be, so you lose the 2 points available there. Best I can see is you get 7 points, which means it will be classed as a Kit Car. Do-able...but as others have said...a logistical nightmare with VOSA, MOT's, and Insurance. Good luck!

And if I merely put a new 110 Chasis on? What are the legal implications?

What, if you change the chassis for a new one, like for like?

So long as the old chassis is not reused on the road, then there is no bother.

Then there should be no legal implications. Re-chassising is standard practice these days, and you keep the 8 points required.
If you then alter the body that would be an issue mainly for your insurance

Legal side of chassis replacement is that you have a receipt for the chassis and that it is the same type. You do not have to inform DVLA AT ALL and by choosing to do so only confuses them. I've been through hell with DVLA personally with a motorbike I attempted to re-frame a few years ago. Do not tell them anything more than they need to know and they don't need to know you have replaced a like for like chassis with a new replacement.
