I am in the process of redoing a Ford tractor. Not sure
which of the above it is.
I am looking for a used lower part of a front grill. I
want to cut mine and weld a lower half on it. Im trying
to keep the rough patina that shows through the brushed
on paint on it. The new fenders i bought really stick
out as not original.
Im giving it a red, white and blue paint job.
 
Jubilee and NAA grill are the same in my experience.
600 has different mounting, but in your quest may not matter.
I don't have any of them to spare.

If you post a picture of the tractor we could help ID it.
If it has a large nut on the end of the rear axles, not a 600.
 
A Jubilee is an NAA. The NAA was made for both the 1953 & 1954 model years. Since 1953 was the 50th anniversary (golden jubilee) of the Ford Motor Company, they also called the 1953 NAA the "Golden Jubilee Tractor". The badge above the grill is different between the two years, but not much else.
 
Jub/NAA grill has round hole for hand crank, 600/800 the hole is elongated, kind of oval.
If you can post a photo we can better help ID.
Early Jubs had serial numbers on engine, later one on bell housing.
If you have two holes below the flat spot on the bell housing were the serial numbers are then it's a 600/800 or later.

Do you have a picture? I am putting a FEL on my Jubilee and will have to cut mine. I would rather not cut an original grill. If yours is already damaged, maybe we can work something out.

I will get mine off the tractor tomorrow hopefully. I am pouring a slab for a garage in the morning and will work on the tractor after that. I will post a picture of it. I don't remember any real damage. We can compare and then if you want to, we can just trade. I just hate to cut on one that isn't already damaged. Mine is a Jubilee but they appear to be the same.
 
From my reading last night, NAA and 601 grills can be interchanged. The bad news is that after looking at my Jubilee closer this morning, the grill has a big dent on the bottom that was kind of hidden by the bumper and one mounting hole on the bottom is torn out like yours. Not much use swapping. I don't feel bad about modifying it now though, since it is already damaged. Looks like I can't help you much.
 

Thought I'd add a question about grills. This is what came on my 53 NAA Serial #34***. Of all the pictures I've seen, almost all have headlights. Mine still has the knockouts in place and the crank opening is only slightly oval. Original or not ? Fun to track down history of the odds and ends.
