I have a front bed panal (endgate) in great shape from a 54 Chevy p/u. I believe this will fit other years as well. this is thick metal and pretty good looking for its age, asking 125.00 shipped
I also have a GMC tailgate I believe is for a 47-53 bed but Im not sure. Its up in the attic so Ill post pics if theres interest, it is in great shape from what I remember, Ill post pics if theres interest. This is OEM also. 250.00 shipped
neither parts are aftermarket

What condition is the front panel? If you were to rate this from 1-10, 10 being perfect, what would this be? Are the bolt holes perfect on both sides? Is there any bend to the top rail? Any dimples from stuff sliding forward? No rust, right?

More pics for you dsigh:
side bolt hole in good condition, there are a couple of torn bottom bolt holes (elongated) but this is an easy fix and never seen once bolted on, the top rail part has no bends in it that I saw and took pics of, there were a couple of minor dimples in the panal from stuff sliding but you have to look for them to see them. I've gotten aftermarket parts with more damage than this has
