Re: Original tailgate

hey joesjunk, i have a perfect mustard yellow tailgate with white letters and i hate to sand it down and turn it metallic blue. I have it packed away but my memory says it has a narrow band chrome top and bottom. 69? Any trade? This tailgate i was told came off the day the original owner brought it home and put it in the attic with straps and sockets, and it looks the part. Thanks, Brian F.
