'72 Tailgate Band Letters - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

ashx2 · 04-28-2009, 01:13 AM

Does anyone know where to get the letters on the tailgate band? I'm missing letters "C, E, L, & T" and need to find a vendor or catalog where I can purchase them.

Thanks for the help,
Greg

Try LMC, Brothers, Classic Parts, or Ecklers. One of them should have them.

ashx2 · 04-28-2009, 01:52 AM

I think they only sell them by the set. I'd like to be able to get just the individual letters needed w/out getting extras.......but I'll look into your suggestion.

Thanks,
Greg

Yeah true, sorry didn't see you only needed a few of the letters. Though extras are always good to have in the garage. good luck.

Yeah, but those "extra" parts have a way of putting the little lady in a *issy mood.

haha....very good point. I have a crawl space for the attic in my garage that noone looks in except for me so I have a secret hiding space........don't anyone tell here. lol.

Good luck. Let us know if you find a spot to order individuals from.

Maybe ask for people to donate their old odd letters. Only problem with old ones, they are usually missing the mounting pins. You'd have to use trim adhesive or tape to mount them.

Have an "R" that I'd gladly throw in an envelope if you needed it.

ashx2 · 04-28-2009, 09:24 AM

At this point, it's just for my daily driver, and I really wouldn't care if the mounting pins were there or not. I've already got to deal w/that problem w/another letter that was knocked off when I got the trim band.

Thank you for the offer of the "R", but I only need "C, E, L & T". Very nice of you to offer it up though.

I appreciate it.

What a guy! Right there is a fine example of why I love this board! There's always someone willing to help another brother in need.

Hopefully I will get the opportunity to pay it forward.

Thanks Thanks Thanks!!!
