No tailgate - no problem
So as a new owner of a 1965 Econoline pickup I am finding it difficult to source a tailgate as mine did not come with on. I am sure I can get one made but if I am going to do that I was wondering if anyone had thought about Van Doors?
Not sure those are any more accessible than the tailgate. I was thinking of sourcing rear van doors , adding hinges and cutting down the doors and creating a dual door tailgate that opens on the side? I am not 100% committed to this project yet , just wondering what my options are and the thought came to me.
