While modern off-road trucks have some incredible technology, almost nothing compares to the classic Landrover Defender. So when the folks at E.C.D. Automotive Design sent us this "All-American" take on the classic British icon we just had to share it with you.
Project Viking looks irresistible in its Liquid Silver Metallic finish. It’s a mammoth off-road beast sitting at an intimidating 7’4” height on massive 37” Maxxis Trepador Mud-terrain tires. The Icelandic wheel arches give Project Viking an aggressively wide stance. Powered by a 5.3L LC9 V-8 engine that rumbles with a Borla Performance exhaust, Project Viking features the performance and reliability to be just as capable off-road as it is driving across the country.
The interior of this custom D110 features a more subtle look with Corbeau seats finished in beautiful Envy Umber and Super-soft black leathers. Additional storage boxes were added under the rear bench seats. Modern technology includes wireless charging for mobile devices and in-car wifi.
