Ford must not have contributed

I saw the trailer for this movie on t.v.

It is an 80's Bronco with what looks like a Jeep grille and a horseshoe around the kicking horse on the fender.

Anyone else notice this. Kind of curious about the grille. Start at a minute and 2 seconds for a quick flash.

It looks like a the standard "ford-esk truck" you would see in a grand theft auto game.

I like the paint job on that Bronco. And the grill.

I LOVE the burgundy color on the Bronco!

Actually, I just have a soft spot for Bronco's, particularly 78's or 79's with a 73 to 77 grill. Perfect IMO. Add a 2'' lift and 35's with a 300 and you've got my dream ride.

I want to know more about that grill though. I haven't seen a Ford our year (or any old styled Ford that I've seen) with a grill like that on it.

I'd be interested in having a Jeep grill on my truck. I like the look.

Also... when I first saw the trailer on the TV, I thought it was a Jeep Wagoneer. I didn't know it was a Bronco till I saw this thread and then I was like, "OH!".

PS:

It's sacrilegious to Ford, but I wouldn't mind a Jeep Wagoneer with a built motor either. Don't care for CJ's or Cherokees at all.

At least the older Jeeps like that used some Ford parts. They didn't call it American Motors for nothing...

Borg Warner transmissions come to mind.
