Rust and pit free chevy tailgate
Basically rust and pit free tailgate, already soda blasted and ready for a little bit of metal work. This gate is perfectly straight across the lettering and the bottom, but has a slight in and out bow at the top. It appears to be mostly in the outer metal and an easy fix. I ran a taught construction line down both sides of the top and you can make out the slight, 1/8" gap in the one picture. The soda blasting makes the imperfections difficult to spot, so I have circled the two slight creases (outside top), one ding (outside top) and the shallow dent (inside bottom). The inside, shallow dent is roughly 1.5" big and and easy fix with a stud puller; I was going to use a shallow coat of mud for the slight top bow. I think this gate could be perfect with very little work, plus it has already been blasted and only needs minor prep work. I want to be perfectly honest with the description. For a daily driver, it is a perfect gate. For a show truck, it needs minimal metal work to be perfect. Price reduced to $400 for gate and shipping anywhere in the US.
