Zombie Motors is now Licensed, Insured and Bonded for auto sales and Defender Importing - New website coming soon!
It is TRUE, in the last few weeks I have become insured, licensed and bonded for public sales of my Land Rover Defenders (and other vehicles) as well as my UK/ European imports of Defender 90 and 110s (and more vehicles currently in the works, too - all unusual and hard-to-find in the USA, such as Citroen, Porsche, TVR, Lotus, Toyota Landcruiser, Nissan Patrol, RHD classics and more) .
What this means is that if you are interested in purchasing a vehicle from me, Zombie Motors, LLC , you do not have to worry about whether or not the vehicle will be as described, or allowed a title, etc - Unlike other sellers in the USA offering Defender from the United Kingdom. I am fully licensed and bonded, and an agent of the Oregon DMV - Meaning I can personally take care of all your titling and registration needs after-sale.
I am also educated in the process of legally importing these vehicles into the USA, and am bonded in this aspect of the business as well. I can also facilitate in the importation and sales of certain Land Rover Defenders NEWER than 25 years old, namely LHD 1993 - 1997 Defender 110 and 90s.
Stay tuned for a new upcoming website as well - zombiemotors.net - Where I will be offering my public sales and services, and all new vehicles imported from Europe.
For the time being, I still have more Tdi Range Rover Classics than you can shake a stick at, and I am still buying them - Cash waiting for nice, rust-free Range Rovers 1970-1995, running or not. Of course, I also have turbo-diesel engine kits on hand at most times, too.
Physical address (Please make an appointment before dropping by!) is:
7220 N. Burlington AVE, Portland OR 97203 , and I take calls during normal business hours at 503-810-4713 - Best to email me at zak@zombiemotors.net

Thank you for your support ! - ZM

Coming Soon : 1988 Defender 110 turbo diesel with air conditioning & Roll cage -
I bought this truck recently, on its way to me now. Spent a lot of its life in Africa, so it is much more rust-free than most. All original to 1988, including 2.5 turbo diesel engine. Interior is nice and presentable. Has roof A/C - Will be nice in hot climates.
Big tires. Roll cage with rock sliders. Has a CD player. Sweet. Runs and drives nice.
Email with any questions, thank you - zak@zombiemotors.net

Couple more updates to the 1986 D90 - Rear seats out, new load mat & center console..
Hiya'.
I have been busy getting the newest 40' container loaded and on its way (I have a 110 and another 90 coming ) so have not had much time to do anything else here at the shop, but today finally had some time to spend with the 1986 90 - I removed the rear seats that were there - It would have been difficult to get into them with the hard top on and them moved back far enough for adults to have leg room (Though they will likely go back in soon) - - I may order sideways-facing rear seats for this truck soon.
After I removed the rear seats I pulled out the old load mat and drilled out the screws for its retaining strip - Pressure washed out the back of the truck and offered in a brand-new load mat & put a couple of screws in the new stainless steel retaining strip in back - It looks pretty great back there!
Got a brand-new center console installed today too. The brown one matched the front seats, but was pretty shabby. This black one looks great and has cup holders. I'll drink to that.
I have even applied a little 'elbow grease' to the body with some rubbing compound - Just about 20 minute's worth - And the paint DOES shine up nice! Nothing to be done about the door bottoms which have oxidized, but the rest of the truck will actually respond well to a good cut and buff.
Here are a few pictures. Sorry about the exhaust system in the front seat here - This is going to the muffler shop in the morning to have a completely new exhaust (OEM) fitted.
More soon. I am going to sell this truck soon I decided. I have another 90 coming, and I have a couple of 110s to pay for and shipping, and the baby needs things.
Thanks for checking in!

Top off of the 1986 90 now -
I have half doors (new) to install, for now not sure if I will run with these shabby full doors, or go without doors at all?
I think it looks a lot better now, like this! Hard top is in excellent shape, and all headliner/ trim pieces are present and in good condition. I may or may not keep the actual hard top itself, as it takes up a lot of room to store here.
Next step is going to be to give it a good cleaning inside while I have roll bars/ heavy duty canvas hoops made for this. I am also going to pull the axles out from under a Discovery I have here for this too to get better brakes and newer parts underneath. I'll keep posting as it comes along.

Another 'Defender' 90 County Station Wagon for me! On its way soon. Super-nice original truck.
I purchased this low-mileage, one-owner 1988 CSW for myself about a month ago, and here are a few pictures of it headed off to the container facility in Southeast England. Will be making the journey here soon... Very original, 19J turbo-diesel engine is more than adequate, but once here I may install a 200tdi if I feel I need more 'push'. I may just keep this one as a hardtop 'Station Wagon' for the family as it is VERY nice inside - Maybe I'll add air conditioning to keep Missus Mosieur & Squeaky happy though.
Looking a little shabby outside, I already had rear bumper replaced, If I get it painted this one will stay white and definitely keep the 1980's style side decals.
Excited to see this one too. I hope the Mrs. likes it.
