I just picked up this bed and I had an extra tailgate, but the problem is the tailgate I have is to big. The bed is 57 long by 47 wide and the other tailgate is 47 wide and the gate on the bed is 41 wide. What year r these parts Posted from the TJJ App for iPhone & iPad
The rusty on looks to be '28-'30/early '31 Model A. In late '31, they went to a wider bed, which is what the black door looks like it was on. I don't recall how wide the '32-'34 beds got up to, but the black gate may be one of those. Later, Kinky6
