I’ve thought about it before, stripping all the Dodge/Grand Caravan badges off the outside and rebadging it as a Plymouth Grand Voyager.

The grill would be easily solved by getting some inserts like this:

Then putting the Plymouth badge in.

The wheels would be simple as getting Plymouth or smooth centers.

The rear becomes more difficult as the Dodge lettering is sunk into the panel. But I could fill it and repaint it, then put the Plymouth lettering on and add the Grand Voyager badge.

Other ideas/thoughts?

Go with Fiat livery...you can then call it the Fiat Accompli.

better thought, badge it as a Lancia.

L ancia, Fiat, Dodge, SRT and Plymouth all part of FCA.

or maybe as a Maserati or Alfa-Romeo

alternate, go all the way and badge it as a Ferrari

:)

You could probably order the parts straight through an FCA dealer. At least, that's how it worked with Ford for the Middle East-only Crown Vic grilles.

Somehow, and modern science both confirms but cannot explain this, putting a Lancia badge on it will immediately make it horrendously unreliable. Oil will suddenly leak from everything. Al l of your electrics will spontaneously fail. Your transmission will refuse to shift out of gear. And the very moment you put Dodge badges back on it, the oil will creep back into the engine and everything will suddenly work again.

I assume the panel on the rear you’re referring to is the one above the license plate?

If so, maybe you could just swap out that panel for one from a pre-facelifted model or a Ram C/V Tradesman and remove the Ram head emblem.

That is the panel in question.

And ya, swapping it from one on something else would be ideal. The C/V Tradesman seems to just have the Ram Head Emblem and from what I can tell it looks to be just glued on instead of inlaid, so that’s actually a very valid option.

Thanks for that, never even thought about it.
