Orange G4 Tribute – Defender 90
We’ve had this project sitting in the back of the shop for over a year. When we moved her to our current location she wouldn’t start after a blown turbo hose (it collapsed internally) and we couldn’t figure it out – because it wasn’t visible to the eye. As a result she was pushed in the back and forgotten about. When we finally sorted the issue, we had moved on to several other projects and this one kept being pushed back. She deserves a fun home. We’ve loved driving her around and wish we had more time. Photos were taken in April 2020 during the lock down.

What’s Next
Before she goes to her new home, we plan on doing some general maintenance to help the new owners out. A few of the door hinges need adjusting, a few bolts have been poorly put in place, the seat belt brackets will be re-attached. Essentially, it came to us as a project someone else barely put back together. We’ve put quite a bit of effort into making her tidy so far, but will need a little love to bring her to her full potential. It would make a great off-road truck as it is, but could serve as a base for someone who wanted to get an affordable Defender project they could drive while they slowly refreshed it. As an older 2.5L Turbo Diesel, she does have the typical light smoke upon start-up, but does clear and pulls really strong.
