Beautiful Tailgate

Saw it on Facebook Marketplace. I don’t often see them this nice. In Santa Rosa Ca., he’s asking 600.00.


NOTE: Couldn’t post the link for some reason. It a nearly flawless Caribbean Turquoise/White tailgate. Needs no painting at all, vey shiny.


It’s listed in Santa Rosa, California.

Well, I’d never own a uni, I reject them for some of the same reasons buyers did back then, but beauty is, as they say, in the eye of the beholder. I’ll keep my eye peeled for any.

This is a good one, eh?
This is just sandblasted and primered. Zero bondo. It’s about to get some finishing.

Sorry, I was thinking in terms of the spreadsheet, not Easy mode. The spreadsheet shows two changes to APIM and one for IPMA. I suspect you may need to do it accordingly as opposed to Easy Mode.

What's going on between the F and O on the first tail gate? There looks like a wide paint drip.
I wish I had the '62 uni I learned to drive in. We hauled more rock and sand from rocky back roads and never had a problem.

That part of the tailgate is not double wall. It almost looks like a dent from the other side to me.
