Your butt will never fit......
...... those small holders.
Nice job on the truck Mike. Tell us about the tail gate...... did you copy from an old one...?? What gauge..? did you have the sub assemblies bent in a fabrication shop? How expansive was the fabricating shop.....? I am trying to seduce a local shop here to do some small 12 and 14 gauge pieces for me..... set up is about 3 times the price of the steel. did you use mild steel of pickled satin coat...... How bad is your driver's door or is it missing altogether..? Keep trucking...... Boob

CMP Spare Tire and Tool Box
I made a tail gate for a 2C4 box .I didn't keep the measurements but I could get them . I had a shop break the iron I needed and cut the rest in my shop with a plasma cutter .You have to almost be there when they do the breaking as some times they can get a little sloppy I would do enough in one chunk for all the peices of the same size and cut what I needed at home .George

End gate....tail gate stuff
Hi Bob and George,
I used 11 guage for the bent/broke pieces. I had a shop do the frame pieces and as George, I had them do just a couple of pieces and I cut them to size myself with a cutting wheel. Cost me $180.00 including material. Ouch...but...when ya gotta have it .... I copied a tailgate I located here in the city. It was attached to a 44 chev. I did make one mistake in the measurements...the tail gate is now 1"" thick as opposed to 3/4". "I should have measured twice and wrote once". I am not pissed about it, in fact one would not even notice it. The hinges I made from 1 1/2 cold rolled steel rod that was bored with a 5/8 hole which were welded to 1/4 flat bar. this was much easier than heating and bending them to form the loop. The skin is 14 guage. So far it has been very easy. I should be finished this afternoon and ready for paint. cheers Mike
