I have seen lots of Series landies with Defender fronts, I have never quite seen the point in it myself but there you go! I would have thought the wings would need to be changed as well.

Not saying it cant be done, but, should it be done?
Like putting a Freelander body on a defender chassis

neither - Twaz a Question. It might be an arguement for not using other motors as a brake tho .
.I totally agree with what you are all saying, and so doe's the lad that owns it, but here's the thing....
It's only a play thing, it's not on the road. The front end has seen better days, infact it's dangerous, so why waste yet another set of series body work, when he can use deffender gear.

Daft question, but bear with me... Can you fit a series 3 front end on a 90???? Oh, and can the windscreen be folded down on a 90 soft top?
anything is possible with enough resources.
Why does he care what it looks like if it is just for pay and play?
Surely if its a bit battered you batter it back into shape and stick some bit of metal over the worst bits... spending money on the 'looks' of something you're just thrashing around and damaging from time to time seems a bit... errm... pointless?

One of the pay and play site's we use get a bit funny if you turn up with knackerd looking motors (thats fair enough in my eye's, as one of the other site's we use, is full of little chavs in beat up SJ's and other assorted jap crap and they dont care a flying f**k who they crash into) so he need's to sort his tired looking landy out, other wise there will be a good chance he's going to get turned away.

ok then, take off the wings and using lorry mudguards make them up your self if its just going to get trashed beleave it or not you can do quite a smart job or using the present wing tops cut them down to look like xtreme wings by whitbread that is all of coarse if you dont mind sacrificing the series lines!
