The modified AD tailgate is finished!

I had my brother in law take the ends off each side and cut it down, then put the ends back on so it would fit.. since the '46 tailgate opening is a little more narrow than the '47 second thru whenever 50's tailgate opening.

He put it together yesterday, but just tack welded it in a few spots so I could see if it would fit.. I confirmed it's fit last night, and he welded it up solid and sent it back to me.

I'm all set to paint the bed tomorrow (got another quart of JD Green) and i'll be putting the AD gate on.. so sometime tomorrow i'll be posting a new and improved "butt shot".


an idea is only stupid if you think about it rationally.
