MT Anyone have an OEM paint medium olive tailgate available? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Hoping no one has an OEM paint medium olive tailgate for use on a 72 pickup, which is available locally and very cool but I really shouldn't buy. If somebody does, this may tip me over the edge to where I have to buy the truck this weekend

Pete,
Jenn & Jerimiah had a nice med olive Chevy gate (take off). I don't remember if they sold it.
it was a while ago so its probably gone.
Good luck!

Thanks! I recall that one and believe it's sold. That's prob too nice for the rusty patina'd K20 I have in mind but appreicate the help. Hope you saw the pics of the license plate bracket I posted to the my K20 build. Let me know if I need to get any more for you.

Yep Chevy but thanks. I like what you did with the ochre tailgate add. If I grab the truck its to emulate your current K20 build Jud.

Sweet, go for it! Although you'll be miles ahead since it hasn't been left for dead for 20years in a field!

Thanks. Sounds like a take-off gate? I'm looking for something to complement the faded paint, rust, and minor dents elsewhere.

I'd check with Tom from Springfield, OR. He has about 40 trucks to part on his lot. Do you have his contact info?
