Im no Expert but it looks good to me, seems a decent price too. Good Luck with your rebuild. I am doing the same on a 110 1987, Like I say I am no expert first time ive done anything like this, to be honest I wouldn't have got as far as I have without the help from people on this forum, still got a long way to go though. Im not far from you, your welcome to come and have a look at mine anytime.

I'm sorry, i answered your poll based on whether my 110 was worth the Money I payed for it 
. It wasn't. Yours is very nice and I would say a good buy!

To be pedantic it is not a defender at 1986 it is just a 110
Have you got some pictures of the engine bay and dash? To retro fit a td5 is not an easy or cheap job into an older vehicle. So would Be interested to see how they have done it. What gearbox does it have fitted (where is reverse gear)? 2.5k is cheep for a Land Rover, without wishing to sound pessimistic, what is wrong with it to mean the price was so low?

To be even more pedantic, the model was actually called a One Ten, not a 110.

Quite possible to do everything on a landrover outside. In some ways it is easier, the light is better for ageing eyes.
A hard surface to roll engine cranes and trolley jacks around is more helpful than a roof.

What's it like underneath? The bodywork looks nice and straight. What's the bulkhead like? Again I'd like to see pictures of the engine bay. A TD5 in and '86 110 an uncommon conversion, normally these were retro fitted with a 200tdi or 300tdi.

Hi dag mate everything’s getting fixed before I start the cosmetics all welding and structural work and mechanical will be fixed to brand new standard
Be interesting to peak under the bonnet, a Td5 retro into an old One Ten is rare.
Looks a decent project to start off your life of Landy ownership with, there will be a list of things to fix before a bull bar
Don’t be shy to ask questions, be prepared for plenty of advice and banter in equal measure.....

I use Paddocks mostly, they are very reliable and cheap. If I'm in a hurry for anything there's a local Landy Dealer near me, bit dearer but Handy, open on a Sunday morning too.
Looking forward to more photos and updates of yours. Good Luck with it.
On closer scrutiny, that looks like a 110 Td5 of 1999/2000 vintage but with an older ID. Check the Chassis number if you can....
