LS3-Powered Black Bridge Defender MK IV Restomod
Black Bridge Motors crafted a unique restomod based on a 1988 Land Rover Defender 90, dubbed the Black Bridge Defender MK IV. The build combines vintage 1960s and 1970s design cues with contemporary performance, featuring a 6.2L LS3 V8 from a Corvette producing 430 hp and 425 lb-ft of torque. The exterior sports a Beluga Black paint finish, bespoke grille, steel bumpers, and flared fenders. Inside, the modernized cabin includes a 9-inch touchscreen, custom instrumentation, and Moore & Giles leather trimming, all handcrafted for a one-of-a-kind experience.
