Look what I found!

Can someone tell me what years these grills came on? And the rarity of them? I've never seen one with both the green and black ovals on it. As you can tell from the picture I also managed to score some tail light and head light guards. Woohoo :elkgrin:

it's just a standard classic grill some knucklehead popped on the black logo

 

[MedicalCowboy]

That's incorrect actually. It's made into the grill just like the oval. What kind of chump do you take me for? Lol

87/88?

Some early '87's may not have had a black Land Rover badge on the grill (this grill was also new for '87, previous Range Rovers had vertical salts in the grill.)

89: The Land Rover badge on the grill was now green with gold letters

Its definitely just a standard classic grille with a second badge added on. They are removable and transferable

 

[MedicalCowboy]

I understand that they are removable, but I've never seen one that space for two badges. It is not screwed in or taped or anything. Both of the badges are made into the grill. If I remove the black one there is still a spot for the badge to go. Maybe I should add better photos to show you...

RRC Grille.

Install as wall art in your garage.

That's where my old grill is going actually lol and this one is going on the RRC. Also my wife has given me permission to hang the old hood in the stairwell lol.

 

[proper4wd]

The plastic "badge holder" is a removable part that kind of snaps into the grille. Someone has added a second one with a black badge from an 87 or 88 Range Rover.

Regardless of what it's from I think it looks good. Thanks guys.

Don't you think if it was factory they would have made it symmetrical? The left one is farther out than the right one

 

[MedicalCowboy]

Pah symmetry is for the birds lol

 

[MedicalCowboy]

Ok... So I am a fool. You guys were right. I owe you each a brew for my stupidity lol :beer:

Nah, you're not a fool. Everyone has thought that they found Hitler's Walther PPK or an unknown Picasso.
