Sandy gets the chop

In a random fit of idleness I've decided to bob-tail the defender. I'm actually half way through, and have the tailstock cut off with me trusty angle grinder.

It took a little more thought and planning than just chop/weld bam!. For starters I've had to decide what to do with my fuel tank, and I've temporarily relocated it to behind the cab. There's also the need to relocate the wiring harness that used to run in the chassis, but a hole saw should solve that issue.


I've also actually thrown together an MSpaint jpeg of how it should look.
