Tailgate Wanted

Post by lexumus »

Chasing a tailgate for my Panelvan in any condition, the inside bottom section has rusted out. I know i can buy an outer skin and i was thinking if i could get hold of one in similar condition to mine that i could cut the middle flat section out and move it down and bend it to original shape. Any other suggestions considered. i would like to keep the factory pressed metal look

FE/C ute tailgates are the same - that one of yours doesnt look too bad - very repairable. Make yourself a buck and that pressing would be easy to form.
I started with nothing and still have most of it left.
