We've sold over 300 vintage tailgates that our customers have used for rat rods and repurposed into benches, tables, fences or signs.   We generally have several different makes and models, so be sure to view our other auctions and check back often…you never know what Pete will find.


There is a reason they are so popular…the size makes them the perfect bench back or wall hanger and the strength of the old iron, chippy paint and the patina of the oxidized metal make them one-of-a-kind works of art...terrific for a vintage grunge industrial look. 


This tailgate came off an old 40’s Chevy and has an enviable "grunge" finish with just the right amount of the original green and oxidized metal. (Use the zoom feature for an accurate visual description)  Fortunately, we're from dry old Kansas and the metal is still sound...just plenty of character dents...I'm sure this had a rich history. This was spot-welded...some of the brass welds left brighter spots.  We shellaced the embossed letters to protect the peeling paint. 50 5/8" x 15 1/2".

But it’s gone up a bit since then. By 2011, it was costing twice as much – £10 a day – for the dubious privilege of driving in London, but having resisted the temptation of putting the price up for the last three years, Transport for London has announced it will be charging 15 per cent more from 7am on 16 June 2014 for your daily commute – that’s a whopping £11.50.
