“Blue Jay”
This is a truly one-of-a-kind 1994 Land Rover Defender 90 NAS, no. #275 of approximately 1900 that were brought to the US market between 1993-1997.
A full “nut-and-bolt” rebuild has recently been completed by HHH Heritage, who are highly regarded as one of the most detailed Defender builders in the US.
This build pays homage to the world renowned design of the Defender, while the never-ending list of improvements, updates, and customization has revived this vehicle for 2019 and beyond.
Over $138,000 was put into this vehicle, with no stone left unturned and no expense spared. Each of the 550 labor hours was committed to ensuring mechanical and aesthetic perfection both internally and externally.
Very reluctant sale due to arrival of a 2nd child and subsequent home-build since starting the build in July 2018. Build was completed in June 2019.
