"Rhino Chaser," I like that. In my humble opinion, and I am always right,
the hood and the Rhino Chaser grille were designed together. The "razor"
just doesn't fit. Every time I see one of the later model grilles I wonder
why it doesn't match up with the hood.

It is that way mainly because the tooling for the J trucks, the Cherokees,
the Wagoneers, and the Grand Wagoneers didn't change appreciably over the
life of those lines. Actually the newer grills look pretty good with that
hood.
I believe the term "Rhino Chaser" was coined after the movie "Hitari" with
John Wayne chasing rhinos in a FSJ.
