    Jim, until very recently I worked for JLR Classic (Jaguar Land Rover) I have since moved back to aerospace, they restore these cars to better than new standard and will even take car of shipping the car back to you
    ditch that roof rack and go with the Safety Devices external roll cage and rack with the light bar, Recaro seat upgrade and steering wheel re-trim, personally i would also go with the Bilstein suspension and Alcon brakes they do too.
    I still have connections there so pretty confident I could get you a factory tour, their is a lot of cool stuff in there, over 200 cars in the collection

I've done plenty of offroading in outback Australia in a old Nissan Pajero. Rooftop tent, all the gear in the back. Ultimate freedom and the best adventure you'll ever have. One with responsibilities as well; when you are the only 4wd on a tough track days away from rescue you better be ready to survive for a week or two when it does tip over.
