1953 FORD Country Seadn STATION WAGON TAILGATE?

Found a 1953 Country Sedan I am debating about buying...looks really solid,

****but will need a tailgate.****

All the 1952-54 lower gates I have seen, excetp a few, have the same rust line...anyone have a good one, in case I get this?

"Good = no rust".

Thanks! There are no patch panels, not even for the outer skin of these.

 

Your P. M. box is full, so I could not answer ya'.

 

Need a 1952 1953 1954 FORD STATION WAGON tailgate...not a late '50s wagon, made by another mfr.. Please. Thanks.

Bump.

 

So you did buy it ?

 

I just saw one in a wrecking yard out side of phoenix today, but didn't pay attention to the tailgate. I have to go up again next weekend and can check then.

 

I have a 53 ford wagon tailgate and back window for sale both in good condition. 610 960 9045 Scott.

 

From past experience,,,it's a common problem with the 52-54 Wagons and you are right patch panels don't exist for the tailgate but you can make your own.

Just cut out the existing metal,,sandblast that area and replace with new sheet metal.

This is the tail gate on our '54 Ranch Wagon,,HRP

 

HOTRODPRIMER,nice wagon. Excellent restoration pictures and workmanship....Mike

 

Got one?

Bump...looking again!

I live in Vegas and they are rusted here, even. Odd design.
Like 1949-52 Chevy wagons...always rusted at the bottom.

THANKS.

 

Bump.
Starting on the search again...let me know.

ALSO - THIRD SEAT for 1952-1954 FORD FOUR FOUR WAGON NEEDED, TOO.

 

Bump.
