Default Land Rover heaven!!

Land Rover jackpot!!
So here's the story. I've been thinking about getting an older discovery to fix up for myself. A few minutes ago I ran into a guy who was driving one of the 500 1993 North American defenders that were shipped over. Got in and checked it out bla bla bla.

So down the road in the middle of nowhere, there is a large piece of property with big fences around it and you cannot see in. And behind that fence is......... LAND ROVER HEAVEN!!! Yep. Its a salvage yard full of land rovers and jags. They dont advertise and they build rovers for customers. Anyway, he told me that if the gate is open to come on in. Cant wait!!;

Forgot to mention, they have three of the 1993 defenders. He said they were using the one he's driving for parts as well as another so they could build one nice one as they sell for 150000. He also said as old and worn out as the one he was driving is it still drove straight as can be because it's so solid. Definitely going to be my new "main" route home.
