One more ultimate eco-Rover...

[dieselcruiserhead]

For the owner of PlantDrive SVO systems, built by Shane at RoverHybrids who is a supporter of my 4BTswap.com site...

http://www.roverhybrids.com/D100_build_up.html

Custom Defender 100 that runs on vegetable oil and biodiesel. The owner also has an incredibly clean HDJ-80 series Land Cruiser conversion, the legendary super rare 24 valve mechanical/non electronic conversion into a FZJ80 cruiser... Done by a legendary Brazilian diesel engine conversion specialist in the LA area. I have seen his work, so clean it is very hard to tell the engine was even a conversion, all factory aspects reintigrated into the 80 series from non-US models, completely factory correct...

Last I spoke to him he was considering selling the D100 in favor of the Land Cruiser...

RoverHybrids is also having an open house next weekend for a 4BT Cummins converted D90... http://www.expeditionportal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=10081

A D100 would be one of my "When I hit the lottery" rigs.

The roof opens, too.

Anyone know how much a project like this would cost?

anyone know what the mpg is on veggie oil?

You could email the owner...

The owner is Craig Reese over at Plantdrirve.com. I bought his D90 POE top and LR basket rack before he did the conversion.
