Why would a new old stock tailgate need to be welded together . Not new in my opinion .

Looks like a GM tailgate but it is not "NOS"

I bought my NOS tailgate which was still wrapped in GM cardboard for $75. I do not know what year it is for though!

All OEM body panels in the era came from GM in a dipped black prime. GM welded sheet metal with spot welds no a Mig welder. I have handled many a tailgate none had those kinds of welds from GM. Definitely not NOS.
