Stepside Tailgate
 
Soo I got looking on ebay tonight and it seems that all the tailgates for stepsides were the same 55-87? Is this correct? I'm gonna kick myself if so since there were a ton there I could have picked up cheap... :(

Nice! All you southern people have it good... Know what it's like trying to find ANYTHING rust free for these trucks in the northeast? I've been looking for a cab too but everything up here's rotted worst than what I have now...

That is correct, you can still buy it from GM although it's a little pricey ($300) also MarK products has them Plain ,with logo or smooth. Jap ones, like sorta.... I mean certa-fit are arond $100. They are thinner and the welds not in a staight row but they are new.

thats a shame i scrapped my 86 cab casue no one wanted it. but i agree but im not reall southern im 30 minutes from dc and they like there salt. so finding something real nice isnt alway common i just get luck sometime.

A buddy of mine is tradding his 71 monte carlo for a 68 short bed step with all the body work done he want a fleet side so i ask him if i could get the step side he said ok. Know all i have t di is find something to put it on.
