pics of p/u beds, tailgate hinges, rolled pans etc.

just looking for ideas for the bed of my 40 pickup.tailgate hinges , taillights, rolled pans, side skirts etc. love to see some pics if ya got em. thanks fellas

 

46 chevy..

 

The first photo is mine.

 

On this one you can see the problems mounting the license plate. If you mount it to the top of the tail light, it will hit the bed. To the bottom and if a bumper is used, you can not see it. May be an advantage. I used the car rear bumper brackets to mount the bumper higher and fills that empty area below the tailgate. Tailgate still opens and lays level. Tail light brackets use the same two holes as the gate hinge.

 

thanks for the pics. i got an original 40 tailgate. anyone know who sells the hinges ? or anyone got a pair they wanna sell? i'll post some pics of it tomorrow. thanks

 

Here's my homemade bed with homemade tailgate and hinges. '41-'48 Chevy tailights.
