  • From a dingy tailgate bench to a shiny patina tailgate! Please watch the process I used to make the tailgate worthy of being on my truck.

    Great video! 👍 I have that same problem with my 66 tailgate. Being twisted sums it up. Truck had a camper shell on it most of it's life and tailgate is straight. I knew I needed to watch this to the end

    I saw a guy on TH-cam (can't remember the channel) but he just put his taco'ed C10 tailgate on the ground and ran it over with his truck. I was surprised, it straightened it out real good, no damage. You should try that with the old one. Put a thin rubber mat down under it and drive over it a few times.

    Hey fella, nice ride!! Appreciate all your videos, you do a great job! Quick off topic question for ya if you don’t mind, how are you liking the radiator you have as well as the electric fans? I’m fixing to be in the market for one.

      Thanks for the compliment. I like the fans. They move a lot of air and so far the radiator does what it needs to do. However, the other day I got caught in some stop and go traffic and the temps were creeping up. It was hot outside and I had the ac on but I’m still disappointed. I don’t know what or how to fix that. It’s always something

      You are correct sir. Always something, picked up a 66 last month and going through it. my first truck was a 66, and now I’m in my 40’s, and yet the ol 66 calls. She’s got some problems, but overall super clean. I appreciate your reply and candid response. You do good tedious work (I’m not patient enough lol ) I’ll keep watching your videos man. Thanks for the info
