If you can't find a used one, there are reproductions, but they're not cheap.

There are also Chinese knock-offs for about half the price that lack the Ford lettering and are made from thinner-gauge steel.

Look at local old RV sales places. They used to
remove tail gates to install new slide in campers.
Than have a stack of new gates like out back up
against the building or something. If its a store
that has been around for a long time there is a
chance they may still have some and not even
know what they have. I knew of an RV dealer in
Washington state that had over 50 of them from
the 70's and 80's. This was back in 99 and they
have since closed. Anyway this is the kind of place
I have found them at.
