Land Rover Discovery Rock Crawler

     We are currently undertaking a new project, the construction of a Land Rover Discovery Rock Crawler. We won't be following the recent trend of tube buggys, with narrowed bodys or practically no bodys at all. The plan is to keep this Discovery full sized, full width, and as streetablel as possible, but still capable of handling the most difficult trails around. Why streetable and not a trailer queen? Because sometimes it is enjoyable to take a rig out on a nice day to get some coffee or bite to eat, it's nice to have those options.. and lets face it, we all love the looks we get! When do we expect to have it finished? We'll we're not sure yet, but we hopefully in time for some summer and fall wheeling.

We are currently looking for project sponsors. Interested in sponsoring our Land Rover Discovery Rock Crawler Project? Email Us.
