We've sold over 300 vintage tailgates that customers use in restorations and repurpose 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 and the old worn paint and random dents and dings give them unique character; the patina of the oxidized metal can only be produced by time and the elements.  


This tailgate came off an old 50’s Chevy and has a incredible "grunge" finish with original worn turquoise, yellow, white paint 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...really good condition for an old tailgate, and the finish is one of my favorites!  50 3/4" x 19 1/2".

For the first time, design studios from outside the US – from both Germany and Japan – will compete for the prize.

Set sail in the Fiat 1100 Boat Car by Carrozzeria Coriasco

Tue, 01 Apr 2014

There are a few ways to tackle the problem of wanting to have a boat and a car but only having the space (or budget) for one vehicle. You could go the Amphicar route and end up with a so-so car that's also a so-so boat (bail-out buckets of charm though!). If budget permits, you could pick up a Quadski, but that doesn't give you the comfort of an enclosed cabin.

Mon, 15 Apr 2013

These official sketches show MG's new British-designed concept car: the CS crossover. It's MG's second go at a SUV design, following the retro-styled Icon concept unveiled in 2012. This new car has an altogether more modern look, and is aimed squarely at young car buyers instead of MG enthusiasts.
