Saving The Classics
We firmly believe in building Land Rover Defenders that are true to the heritage of the brand. When we source vehicles to go through our extensive restoration process we often come across original survivors that are in otherwise great condition, but might simply require a bit of love to bring them to a reliable status. We call this our Preservation Series of Defenders. We take them through an extensive mechanical refresh process before offering them up to the public. The Defenders on this page represent current inventory of donor vehicles we believe should be saved.
A Note on Inventory
Most of the Defenders we offer to the market are either Heritage or Bespoke restoration projects built specifically for a customer. We manage the entire process from sourcing to final import and delivery. If you’re looking for something unique and custom, please feel free to reach out to us to start a conversation. The Defenders listed on this page come in the form of Driving Restorations or our Preservation Series of Defenders. They could all become donors for a restoration project but are also fully capable of being driven in their current condition.
We also have a complete Listings page, which will likely include additional Defenders available for restoration and/or adoption.
The Bishop+Rook Defender Buyer’s Guide
Are you tired of browsing countless forums, perusing dubious YouTube tutorials, and losing sleep over the enigmatic world of vintage Land Rovers? Well, fear not, fellow adventurers! Our trusty journal, aptly referred to (at least internally) as “The Definitive Land Rover Defender Hunting Guide,” attempts to bring some sanity to this chaotic realm of these classic off-road vehicles.
Searching For A Defender?
We have a constant flow of pre-restoration and Preservation Series Defenders available for sale/adoption. Many do not make it to the website due to the high demand. If you’re looking for something special, please reach out and connect with us.

Defender Garage Sale
As we have moved into a beautiful new shop, we’ve decided to eliminate as much clutter as we can. We have a few Defender projects we’re not going to be using and would love for them to go to new homes. They are projects, but all have valid paperwork and can be shipped anywhere in the world.

Grayson
This Land Rover 110 V8 would be an exceptional opportunity for someone to get a vintage Land Rover at a very reasonable price. Grayson is the first year of the new “Defender” body style but still featured the smooth running and powerful Rover V8. We are currently refreshing the engine and the price will be adjusted accordingly.
