IN Fleetside Tailgate - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

This is an original tailgate. It is not bowed and the face is in relatively good condition. It does have some dents on both sides but it is not rusted. I would prefer to have a local p/u so as not to mess with shipping. I primed the back and top half right after i got it. there was some filler on top that was all cracking off and i wanted to make sure i knew where the metal was. There is no filler in the pics you see. Asking NOW (2-1-11) $175.

I need a tailgate... But any idea on shipping to 11937 (Long Island) Might be a deal breaker

I am looking into shipping via Greyhound. I ahve heard it is relatively inexpensive and will let you know what i find out. Click on the link below and let me know what delivery location would work best for you so i can figure shipping properly. Thanks.

Hempstead, NY is the closest to me, but its still about an hour and a half away. Let me know what you come up with. Thanks

**70STOVEBOLT** · 02-03-2011, 01:55 PM

Any idea why there was filler on the top? Are there dents in the top? I would like to see some pics of the dents please.

Thanks,
Mark

Shipping quote from Greyhound was just over $100.

As soon as i can get to the tailgate i will get some better pics of the front the tailgate. Right now it is buried with my truck!

The filler was over some weld that was done at the dent. The first pic in the this string shows a little of it right of middle near the top. Still a straight tailgate for a driver.

yfs200p · 02-03-2011, 05:48 PM

Sorry. Have to pass on $275 at the moment 70stovebolt can have it.

**70STOVEBOLT** · 02-04-2011, 03:05 PM

Ok, I will wait for pics, I'm not in a hurry. If someone else steps up, they can get in line in front of me also.

Thanks,
Mark

RPBurris · 03-14-2011, 06:17 PM

Well here are some better pics showing the dents on the face of the tailgate. I also clamped an angle iron to the back on now see there is a slight bow. Pic might not be clear enough but the worst spot is 3/8" bow. Seeing as this is the case i would be willing to take $150 (no shipping). I believe StoveBolt was the last person interested.
