Vintage 1955 1956 1957 1958 1959 Chevrolet Pickup Tail Gate Tailgate Bench on 2040-parts.com
Colby, Kansas, United States
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 faded turquoise, white and oxidized metal. (Use the zoom feature for an accurate visual description). Instead of welds, the top and bottom is studded with evenly spaced brass bolts...a great look! You can buy new jeans that were made to look old, but it's not the same unless the battle scars were earned...same with tailgates. This has a few bonds spots and a worn finish...but that's what makes it great. Fortunately, we're from dry old Kansas and the metal is still sound...just a few random dents...and the finish is one of my favorites! 50 3/4" x 19 1/2". |

Ford Fiesta – Good. Fiesta advertising – not so good.
Thu, 10 Dec 2009The billboard on a US Fiesta Display (click for bigger image) We have to hand it to Ford. They have handled the introduction of the Fiesta to the US market in a very clever, 21st century way. Their Fiesta Movement campaign paid big dividends and delivered a record level of awareness for a relatively unknown little car in the land of the V8 gas guzzler.
