i'm looking for the top part of the half moon on the driver side tailgate,,fleet tailgate. mine was gone when i bought it....
this is what help it let down without falling.

**72peace** · 09-13-2011, 07:20 PM

Are these the pieces you're looking for? or is it the welded piece on the end of the tailgate?

windmill · 09-13-2011, 07:24 PM

i need the one thats welded to the gate itself,, it where the round peices you have set in them on the gate. hey thanks tho i'll try and post what i need

**72peace** · 09-13-2011, 07:25 PM

I added a second photo, is that it?

windmill · 09-13-2011, 07:44 PM

hey thats it the upper part..... anyone has one on a junk tailgate...

Vintage Windmills · 09-13-2011, 08:06 PM

I should have one. $10 shipped. I like your username so I responded to your post.

windmill · 09-13-2011, 08:11 PM

i'll take it,,,, the story behind the windmill is i did have a grand national i raced for like 12 years so when i first got it a friend of mine started calling it windmill of the big turbo, so it stuck with it and even had a personal tag made too,, so it will go on my 67 chevelle when its done(i've had for 25 years) redoing it..... tell me where to send the money,,,,

Vintage Windmills · 09-13-2011, 10:01 PM

Ok, let me get it off and snap a pic 1st. Also, if 72 peace had one, I'll let him have the sale.

windmill · 09-13-2011, 10:16 PM

sure thing,,,,,

**72peace** · 09-13-2011, 10:54 PM

I don't have one separated from the gate, so if Vintage has one, go for it. Glad we could be of help.

Cheers,

windmill · 09-13-2011, 11:14 PM
