If two friends the team of ECD Automotive Design commissioned to build two Land Rover Defender 90 soft-top SUVs, the result is something very special. The best example are the two vehicles from the pictures. They are almost identical on the outside and can therefore hardly be distinguished from one another. However, they differ significantly as soon as you take a look at the interior. One example is called Project 67 and the other Project Flamingo. Both are top notch Restomods and both wear a green Keswick livery in combination with a black soft top. Both are on new 16 inch rims with robust Off-road tires and even the wheel nuts are the same. Incidentally, ECD specifically covered the rims with BFGoodrich off-road tires.

Above the windshield of the two vehicles you have four LED auxiliary lights installed, the one on the black Roll cage are attached. And the similarities are also evident in the engine compartment and in terms of the chassis. Both have a powerful LS3 V8 engine from General Motors under the hood, which is coupled to a six-speed automatic transmission. Other similarities in terms of technology are the in-house ECD air suspension, an EBC brake system and a BorlaSports exhaust system. In the Project 67 cabin, ECD installed a Momo Prototipo steering wheel.
The steering wheel and seats feature a single horizontal stitch and are also upholstered in Cadence Moon Rock leather. In the rear of Project 67 inward-facing bench seats can also be seen. Also, this Defender has a 110 volt outlet, wireless charger and a Air conditioning in the back. Things are a little different in Project Flamingo to. Here you built an equipment with Cadence Lentil leather. In addition, a Nardi Challenge steering wheel is installed and there is only one inward-facing bench seat in the rear. It is installed opposite the inward-facing jump seats.

Otherwise, the two vehicles show a "wide range of options that the ECD customers can choose to realize the dream of having their own restomodsays ECD co-founder Scott Wallace. And what makes ECD vehicles even more special is the fact that each Defender individually built by ECD is unique. Because ECD will not allow any other customer to replicate a vehicle 1:1.
