In a move that is sure to have Land Rover purists screaming and throwing things at their televisions, the team at Goblin Works Garage slammed a 1961 Series 2a Land Rover pretty much to the floor for an episode of their Velocity TV show. The team set out to create the lowest Land Rover ever, knowing full well it would be incredibly controversial. They delivered. Some might question whether the vehicle has the same soul that made the vintage SUV great in the first place, but it’s still a looker thanks to all the modifications. New radiator and gear box. Rebuilt axles. Wider-banded rear wheels. Side-mounted exhaust. Aircraft-inspired seats. And, most obviously, a new suspension. The “Slammed Rover” is equal parts Restoration Hardware aviation collection, adrenaline TV show hot rod and absolutely ridiculous creation. Whether you love it or hate it, it’s sure to get people talking.
