Are you ready to start your build or have a question?

To say I am a fan of Brooklyn Coachworks is an understatement. They are creating and reimagining, hands down, the best-looking Defenders on the market today. There is an attention to detail, craft, and most importantly, authenticity to the badge. Daniel’s obsession is obvious with the quality of his builds and his hands-on approach—most of all his deep passion for driving these Land Rovers. I highly recommend Brooklyn Coachworks if you are in the market for a Land Rover Defender.

Matt Hranek - WM Brown Magazine

There is no denying that Land Rover Defenders have slipped into the torrents of trendiness, and there is a real danger of builders diluting the essence that made them appealing in the first place. However, after 20 years of building the same Defender 90 repeatedly, Daniel Marcello, President of Brooklyn Coachworks, has learned a few things about the old Bulldogs. He manages to maintain a specific aesthetic and supreme build quality that can only come from decades spent building Defenders.

Daniel Marcello has mastered the blending of style, taste, and purpose. Brooklyn Coachworks isn’t trying to make its restorations into something that they are not. His craft stays true to the heritage of the brand and he builds his trucks to be used as originally intended, albeit in a little more comfort. It’s a rare find in the automotive space, especially the Land Rover niche, that operates with such class.
