As usual with projects that sound like a good idea, it probably won't fit. And if it does, it probably won't look right anyway. Do you know of anyone who's tried it and taken pictures (whether it worked or not)? Failing that, is there someone who's better at manipulating images than I am, who could put together a picture of what the result would look like if it could be made to fit?

Here's a photo I found on the net some years back. Don't know anything about the Jeep in the photo but it appears to have a TJ hood and fenders and a Willys grille. I don't know what modifications were required to fit everything together.

The Willys grille/clip on a TJ/LJ doesn't look quite right to me, but some may like it. I do like "retro" looking Jeeps though, I've got a CJ grille on my LJ...

1991 YJ, 120" wb stretch, 37s
All body parts and mods are in steel. Body and paint to come once the temp warms up. Was a fun project that is now up to the owner to finish.

It’s a Jeep with a truck cab right

Thing went through hell, I saw it up close after the race, took a hell of a beating.

I really like that...

I was just going over your Willys build too, cool to see you're still building badass rigs.
