CENTER BUMPER PAD

Since the idea here is to add a little 1941' flair to the 00' JEEP and the front bumper-pads are now gone...
The addition of
ROPE around the front bumper is a "given"...

Also note the new licence-plate bracket made earlier and what It's holding... :^)
My State is also the only one in the Union with the word DIE in its MOTTO

Since a TJ has the brake lines up front and a center bracket unlike the 43' a little different rope design was made with 50' feet of a $5 spool...

ROPE $5
MILITARY GREEN PAINT $12
THE LOOK ON ANOTHER JEEPERS FACE AS HE PASSES YOU AND SEES THE ROPE?

FUNNY !

( Flag and steel for the plate bracket were FREE )

I might make a small bracket for another Flag at the other end..
I want two mounting tubes in the rear for two Flags..
One for a full-size AMERICAN Flag and the other for a full-size MARINES Flag ( Dad )

The final touch would be some letters and numbers in a STENCIL font on the front bumber in WHITE

MB410066

MB the first model-name ever made
41' meaning the year of the first model
00' is the year that mine was manufactured
66 ( how many years they have been in production up from 1941 to 2007


Ideas for the rear bumper?

The rear Bumper will consist of some 3" x 5" x 3/16ths wall rectangular steel with two bumperette's carrying the spare tire and a Geri-Can.
