Well, as the title states, I bleed blue, so it was inevitable that I had to do something with a Ford logo to make this thing different...

I was hunting around in the backyard for something to make a tool rack in the back of the XJ out of and came across the grille that come out of my old 93 Explorer and was like "hmmm"

trimmed about 3/8 inch off each side, cut the top lip down to about 1/2 inch, drilled 4 holes in it, and screwed it on...



I can't wait to see the confused look on people's face. The "Jeep" emblems will soon say "-deep-" (with the little lines beside it) as sort of a joking water/mud level guide as soon as I can find 2 more p's in the junkyard, so there will not be any brand confusion going on lol

thank you for your input, but...

DILLIGAF

 

Not digging it.

Fords and Jeeps don't mix.

 

well, it will eventually (sooner, rather than later hopefully) have a 302, t18 4 speed, and np205 in it, so the Blue Oval will have a purpose... I was just bored and didn't do anything that couldn't be easily reversed

 

Not my cup of tea, but I always like seeing people try different things! Good luck with your 302 swap when you get around to it.

 

That random pulley up in the air don't look so good.

 

GPW??

And, in Aussie...




Just sayin...

 

It's a spare AC bracket that I am modding to hold an alternator

 

Nothing wrong with mixing brands, parts, etc., makes life interesting.

I have a Ranger trans hooked up to a Chrysler flathead engine, (1937),

in my 38 Plymouth Coupe. Where there is a will, there is a way...

I am looking for another XJ, 2wd, engine & trans, to put in my next project,

a 37 Plymouth Coupe.....

 

I thought of swapping in a Jeep 4.0 and AW4 in place of the problematic 4.2 I6 in my Jaguar XJ6, but then decided to do a SBC swap instead.

 

snif, sniff i think its beautiful. brings a tear to my eye.

well done sir.

Looks different, better than no grill. Would look better without that blue oval however.

 

different makes the world go around...I would remove the extra little oval myself....but to each their own.
