Junkyard score
I picked up this new 73-74 take off tailgate last week for $38. Aperently the guy took it off the truck in 1974 when it was new to put a slide in camper. I don't know if its worth much but it was only about a mile from where I work so I figured what the heck.

Re: Junkyard score
OEM in that condition it certainly is worth the money you could prolly tripple if not quadruple the investment if sold

Re: Junkyard score
That tailgate band alone is worth hundreds to the right guy.

Re: Junkyard score
One with barely any paint and lots of rust costs between $30-$50 around here, and the trim is extra!
