1979 defender converted into a 2016 5 door station wagon

Hi! my knowledge in defenders are very little. there is a old defender for sale (link to the vehicle is down below). I wanna know whether I could fit all the parts of a 2016 110 station wagon defender to above mentioned defender chassis.

2016 defender parts will include
- 2.2l Puma engine and the gearbox (and whatever which needs to be included in a engine conversion)
- change the body into a 110 station wagon

That defender looks newer than 1979, i think they were still series 3 at that point. If it a coil sprung chassis then everything should fit with modified engine and earbox mounts
