Where to buy an old defender (80 Reg or so)

    Hi All,

    I am looking for some advice on where to pick up an old defender such as an 80 Reg or there abouts. The plan is to buy an old defender with a good chassis, prob send of the chassis to be galvanised and then slowly do it up to a reasonable condition to drive on the road using hopefully a lot of its own parts and picking up bits along the way as needed,

    Obviously the idea of getting an old land rover is to get vintage tax & insurance on it, I will still drive something else day to day but i want this as a fun vehicle for the weekends,

    I am aware there will prob be a bit of work in it but thats fine, Dont mind at all and am in no panic,

    I cant seem to find an old cheap defender though to get me started, want to spend as little money as possible on it and just spend money as needed over the next year or so,

    So if anyone knows of a old cheap defender with a log book please let me know or else you might point me in the direction of where to look,

    Thanks,
