This Land Rover Defender 90 NAS got away, but there are more like it here.

This 1994 Land Rover Defender 90 is one of approximately 1,900 North American Specification examples produced for the model year and is powered by a 3.9-liter V8 paired with a five-speed manual transmission and a dual-range transfer case. The seller purchased the truck in 2018 and commissioned a refurbishment by HHH Heritage in Kenosha, Wisconsin, in 2019. Work included an engine rebuild, a replacement frame, a repaint in Arles Blue, and an interior refresh in black. Equipment includes an external/internal roll cage, a black removable soft top, black running boards, a tubular steel rear bumper, a swing-away tire carrier, air conditioning, a Cubby Box center console, and a Kenwood double-DIN stereo with Bluetooth connectivity. This NAS Defender 90 is now offered with records from the HHH Heritage build, an accident-free Carfax report, and a clean Tennessee title in the seller’s name.

The body was refinished in its factory Arles Blue and reinstalled on a replacement black-painted frame as part of the refurbishment at HHH Heritage in 2019. Replacement doors and a replacement tailgate were installed, and repairs were performed prior to paint on the front fenders, hood, and cowl. NAS Defenders were fitted with external/internal roll cages from the factory, and this example was fitted with a custom-fabricated replacement roll cage due to corrosion on the factory cage. The truck features a custom black soft top with removable rear side windows. Additional equipment includes sliding door windows, black running boards, a tubular steel rear step bumper, color-matched fender flares, and a full-size spare mounted to a swing-away tire carrier.

The padded steering wheel fronts factory instrumentation consisting of a 120-mph speedometer, a 6k-rpm tachometer, and gauges for fuel level and coolant temperature. The six-digit odometer shows 70k miles, approximately 1k of which were added by the seller since 2018.

Additional service at that time included rebuilding the fuel injection pump, the alternator, and the starter, as well as replacing the radiator, coolant hoses, fuel injectors, the water pump, the spark plugs, and the distributor cap and rotor. Two oxygen sensors were replaced and the oil was changed in April 2020.
