East Coast Defender making any Land Rover even more badass is nothing new, but Project Pedigree is different because it’s powered by a Corvette engine. Some of you might consider that sacrilegious, but we’re totally on board with the 6.2L Corvette Stingray LS3 V8 outputting 430hp and the BM 6L60 6-speed automatic transmission as opposed to what came stock in this Land Rover Defender 110. This is East Coast Defender after all, so they didn’t stop there. Project Pedigree goes throwback in the paint department with a classic two-tone green/white exterior and white wheels. The top got a G4 Expedition roof rack with ladder along with a full-width forward-facing LED light bar and a rear LED work light. As for the interior, you’ll find a Puma dashboard, Puma-style quilted-leather upholstery, power windows, remote entry, alarm, Mom Indy steering wheel, Alpine stereo, GPS and literally everything else you could ever want inside a Defender.
