NOS or Repop Tailgate? Can you tell???
EDIT: GATE IS NOW FOR SALE http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...36#post3129936
It is definitely a GM gate from several things I was told to look at. Clean edges, welds, correct weight, etc. It's not NOS because it's not in the box, has been primered, and has the holes drilled for upper and lower moldings. But it's BY FAR the nicest gate I've ever laid eyes on. I picked up a gate in perfect shape this evening. I was told it was from a truck in California. When he bought the truck in 92 it was separate from the truck. So it's 17 years old and has been in storage. The truck was sold several years ago. Were repops made back then? Were/are any repops made with the drilling for the trim? I guess that would tell me if it's Repop or NOS. Either way it's in perfect shape without a single dent or scratch. He added the grey primer but no body work was done. If it's a repop I will use it and do the handle relocator to it. If it's NOS, I don't want to mess up a NOS gate so I will sell it.
