Hung up some wall art, in the garage.
Made a bracket and hung my spare tailgates up on the wall. Hope everyone likes it.

Re: Hung up some wall art, in the garage.
That's really nice!
I'd like to have one to hang on the back of my truck?

Re: Hung up some wall art, in the garage.
If I had a chance to nab about a 8 tailgates, I'd be all up for doing that in my garage!
I'm no longer really scrounging parts, since my burb is pretty much done except for the interior. So I don't come up on many cool finds anymore that would make good wall art. In my case, I'd be up to put a bunch of tailgates along the upper edge of the garage wall to ceiling. Sort of like a truck guys crown molding in the garage

Re: Hung up some wall art, in the garage.
You guys are killing me. I can't find a decent tailgate that won't keep me out of the poorhouse. I'm jealous.

Re: Hung up some wall art, in the garage.
Holy cow! If my wife wouldnt kill me i'd make us a new headboard like that one. That is awesome! Heck if she does kill me I will go ahead and build a coffin for me that will use the tailgate for the lid. lol
