Legend Motor Co. was founded by Nick Panos, Sawyer Carpenter and James Frauenberg in Salt Lake City, Utah, and specializes in the manufacture of off-road vehicles.

Their inaugural project, the ‘Signature Series 001’, is a custom, luxury 4×4 that redefines a classic British off-road icon with modern American components for enhanced performance.

The Signature Series 001 retains the iconic silhouette of the classic Land Rover Defender, with a Kevlar-clad aluminum body mounted on a modern Jeep JK chassis. This fusion of classic design with advanced materials and technology aims to create a unique vehicle, combining heritage with modern driving performance and capability.
