Ford 4000 Grill

[slkrause]

Can any one tell me where I can find a full grill assm. for a 72 Ford 4000?
The old grill has the cut outs for the head lights. All I can find on Ebay and others sites dont have the cut outs. They old was either cut at the factory or someone was real good with tin snips.

Thanks,
Shawn

If they have headlamp holes in the grill you own a English built Ford or someone replaced your grill with the British version at some time.

i always kinda wondered why they did the lamp in grill thing.. maybee they drive them on the road more and it's closer to an auto profile??

You are correct. Lighting and licensing are much different there than in the U.S..
Common for British farmers to live in town and drive out to farm fields out in the rural areas. They spend a great deal more time on the roads. British tractors are also required to have rear lighting and license plates.
