Question...
Ok,
so I have a original small GMC tailgate on my 71 Chev that is probably a 8 on a scale. I've heard that these are fairly hard to come by, so my question is this I've got one of those 6or8" molding pcs for the gate w/ Chevrolet letters, should I put this molding on drill all the holes and in essence mess up this gate or should I sell it and find a good Chev one? To you guys that know the value of this stuff whats it worth?? Thanks in advance Brian

Re: Question...
I would not have a problem drilling a few holes in it. You can always weld a screw hole back up....

Re: Question...
An option is 3M double sided tape. That stuff is super strong and I doubt you would ever have a problem with it. most new cars use it for everything. Also NO extra holes for rust to attack. Just a thought. RJ22

Re: Question...
for those not in the know, that gate is a 67/68 only item, so yes, it is hard to come by, and not made in repro.
