Re: Ouch!
I`d buy it if he had a couple N.O.S. bedsides,front panel,wheelhouses,and floor pan/crossmembers to go with it.Couldn`t be more than $5,000 for the package.Then`I`d just have to find an immaculate $35,000 truck that needed a bed.

Re: Ouch!
He's looking for a buyer that is completing a 20-30 thousand dollar restoration, and figures 'if he's in for a penny, he's in for a pound'! In other words, "I've spent mega bucks on the rest of the truck, I might as well not scrimp on the tailgate!" Been there, done that, bank account is empty to prove it....!

Re: Ouch!
850 to start and 1k for the BIN? no thanks. i'd rather get a refurbable one from a yard and dip, then repaint it.

The offshore tailgate I put un my Blazer fit perfect. The only thing is it is about half the weight of an oem gate. I filled it with expanding spray foam to make it sound solid. The offshore gate is junk though in my opinion, it just doesn't stand up to the abuse I put it through, it dents as easily as a new toyota fender. |

Re: Ouch!
SactoJim, kinda hard to find Sacramento area board members. Even harder now since I moved. If you are lookin for parts... Look up Tomatocity. His name is Tim. Nice guy. I heard he was gettin out of the trucks. He has a non-runner 67 and a daily driver 72 frankenstein. Act fast. He put em on Craigs list.
