iv seen a few flushed tailgates in primer sell on ebay for roughly 100quid a shot. sometimes more. iv even seen as high as 130quid!! :o

they need to be good quality to fetch that kinda money tho, strong welds, good prep work and no rust etc etc

give it a shot mate, tailgate from the scrappy aint gonna break the bank, and the cost of materials for such a job is relatively peanuts :+:

yeah, people on ebay just tend to pay over the odds for things... :| :roll:

realistically 60-70quid is about right imo :)
