Off-Road Customizer Seeks Stolen Land Rover Defender 130

It can make some people sick just thinking about having their custom truck stolen, but imagine if you've spent tens of thousands of dollars and hundreds of man-hours creating a one-of-a-kind modified Land Rover extreme trail pickup truck? The pain would be devastating.

The Land Rover experts at Himalaya 4×4 in South Carolina recondition and build completely unique Land Rovers for discerning (and wealthy) off-roaders. This Defender 130 was Himalaya's latest creation and it was ready for sale. Then it disappeared.

The pickup underwent a complete bumper-to-bumper restoration and boasts a fully rebuilt 5.0-liter V-8 (automatic transmission), custom suspension, full black leather interior and 20-inch rims. The asking price was $159,000, and we're guessing the thieves who stole it couldn't afford it.

If you happen to see this vehicle in a neighborhood near you, feel free to contact Mark Staff (president and creative director at Himalaya 4×4) at 843-689-5270.
