I NEED a tailgate

I've been looking for a tailgate for a late 70's shortbox i recently bought. I don't care if it has letters or not. Anyone around the central Indiana area that could help please let me know.

Bought one from J.C. Whitney a couple of years ago and tossed it on a truck I was selling. It was OK but pretty lite duty. Had to use all your old hardware. Real good used ones are $$ if you can find one.

1973/79 F100/350 Stylesides use the same tailgate. Long/Short bed makes no difference.
