Michael Yount Posted May 31, 2023 Share Posted May 31, 2023 Got a friend who came across this grill --- the owner of the grill thought it was for a Jaguar. But this logo looks different. I can't come up with anything with my research -- anyone ever seen this/know what kind of car it's from? Thanks in advance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fordy Posted May 31, 2023 Share Posted May 31, 2023 I can't decipher the text but the piece has a Middle East "feel" about it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Yount Posted May 31, 2023 Author Share Posted May 31, 2023 Thx - my wife and I tried about every combination we could get out of the text --- all to no avail. At first I thought the big cat was the "Arden" logo - but his head is facing the wrong way. The little bit below the cat is interesting as well.....

1935Packard Posted May 31, 2023 Share Posted May 31, 2023 I did a reverse image search for similar images to it, and here it is: It's a Mina Gallery aftermarket item, apparently a company that makes aftermarket custom things for Jaguars. https://www.amazon.com/Mina-Gallery-Emblem-Jaguar-X-Type/dp/B001F7OSUA 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rusty_OToole Posted May 31, 2023 Share Posted May 31, 2023 Cars and trucks, often assembling European or American cars, sometimes their own designs. They made "DeSoto" cars and trucks long after they stopped using the name in Detroit. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the Iranians built Hillmans under license and believe they still may produce one called Iran Khodro which I think is Peugeot based 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
