Re: tailgate made of gold

I have a NOS tailgate here somewhere. I doubt it is worth $2500.
I would rather have tools I do not need than to need tools I do not have

Re: tailgate made of gold

I wrote him and told him he was Way under-priced, that it was worth $6k. just for giggles,

he wrote back saying he priced it at $2500+ because it's not perfect,,and to make an offer, ,,,,,,I didn't reply back.

That's priceless, Jon ! ( You chiding him on, not his tailgate) Wow, can't help but think there was one too many left-handed cigarettes involved in his pricing decisions.

Re: tailgate made of gold

For that price I would assume a working truck is included with the tailgate.

Wow. Mounting assembly and hook chains are not included! I have one that was removed from each 1950 & 1967 soon after purchase with original paint and NO dings. Priceless.

Yep, under-priced at 2.5x what I paid for my KB-7 winch truck with 150' of cable, 2 snatch blocks (ever priced these?) and 2 wire rope slings. All it needed to run was a fresh battery

Re: tailgate made of gold

Haha, bedrock you crack me up!

I made a $100 offer but it was declined :)
It wouldn't work on my long bed anyway because this tailgate is for a short bed. Haha!

Yea, longbed gates are harder to find :t0201:

I was going to offer him my spare gate at $1500 so he could make a profit, :t3724:
