John Hennessey has made one. The Diesel Brothers have also cranked one out. And now an independent British automaker has joined the ranks of the head-turning 6×6 truck market.

Chelsea Truck Company posted a video (shown below) of their Defender Flying Hunstman 6×6 on St. Patrick’s Day, and with any luck, they’ll sell plenty of the vehicles built off the Land Rover Defender.

Though few specs are listed, Chelsea reports that a range of engines will be available for the coach-built truck which can be optioned with either a six-speed manual or five- or five-speed automatic transmission and left or right-hand steering.

An X-Lander front grille with headlamp surrounds is found in the front along with a replacement front bumper with tron ring lights, fog lights and Shadow Chrome headlights.

The interior includes GTB Sports seats along with specially made passenger dashboard top and grab handles, door handles and a center glove box.

Chelsea has also gotten attention recently for its Jeep Wrangler Jet Black “Black Hawk” Edition.
