Re: 1951 Project underway

does the tailgate but up against sumting in the closed position . like against a piece of metal strip welded in the inside on each of the bedsides
you could keep the gate closed with just the latches but i think the rattling will drive you crazy
if you stick some foam of rubber windowstrip on the inside part of the metal strips the gate will have some tension against the latches and whont vibrate and rattle as mush

gate looks realy nicely done maibe you can borrow a beadroller from somewhere and put a bowtie and an edging in the rear panel
