67 only chevy tailgate?

I cant remember where I saw it but is it true that 67 chevy fleetside tailgates are different from 68-72? If so, what are the differences and are they harder or easier to find than 67-68 gmc fleetside tailgates?

Re: 67 only chevy tailgate?

I have not heard anything about the tailgates being any different on 67's...GMC or Chevy. Im sure they would be hard to find if so.

Re: 67 only chevy tailgate?

67, 68, and possibly 69 had just a slightly different stamping. Most people would never know and i don't think it changes value at all.

Someone else will probably post (I think it was Rick or Tyler that had shown the difference in a post a while back), but there is a stamping difference at the outer side edges on the inside of the tailgate.
