Where can i find an older, less expensive defender 110 or 130? I want a diesel engine so i can run biodiesel. Does anyone have some tips on where to find one? It needs to be USA legal.

I'm from B.C., Canada. There is a fellow (He is British) here who deals in older Rovers. He has a Rover wrecking yard, so to speak. He has plenty of x-military Rovers with diesel engines. The British have military bases here in Canada and I believe that's where he is getting them. He also has some civilian models as well. He was telling me about taking a military frame and running gear and putting a civilian body on it. A hybrid as he calls it. He said I would not have a problem selling it in the U.S. I haven't done anything about it because I don't have the time or the room right now for another project.
If your interested, I could pass on his phone number.
