Another Protrash Contraption - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

protrash64 · 01-15-2008, 03:33 PM

I always thought Chevy screwed up when using the leftover 58-59 tailgateson the 60-66 trucks..........the body line didnt meet around the back. I realized it when looking at 2-tone paint on these trucks. So, today I "fixed" mine.........and due to the great interest in my protrash garage grill I added a twist to match the front of my truck. Heres what I did...dont worry, its not at the Frizzle Fry level of commitment we all know and love.....

and by the way, everybodys tailgate just increased in value a little bit as I used up 2 rust-free Arizona tailgates to do this. Better run out and give your 'gate another coat of primer to keep it around a little longer.......

296moon · 01-15-2008, 04:03 PM

you should set the bit you cut out into the other end of the bed, or you could send it to me as I think it would look good set into the back of my cab under the window.

Frizzle Fry · 01-15-2008, 07:07 PM

Man, I should have thought of that! Good idea.

**ChiefRocka** · 01-16-2008, 03:46 AM

Looks good...I had to look at my gate just to see the difference....I couldn't picture it in my head.

Great idea....the mesh looks cool, too.
