Re: heres the progress of the build of my 57 chevy

well I put alot of thought into what I wanted to do with the tailgate.I had bought some 16 gauge steel to smooth it, but wasnt all that keen on the overall look. when you look at these trucks theres not a straight body panel on them and I didnt like the idea of just having a flat gate. I kept staring at the doors of the truck and the shape of them. then I had an idea. I took and cut the skin off of a 1992 chevy tailgate. the shape is identical to the doors. so I figured this would shape up the ass end and give it some curves.
