Re: tailgate repair
I did basically the same thing with bar clamps and the 6x6's shown here. If I had a porta power I would do what is shown! As a final note, I bought a reproduction tailgate from Chevrolet restoration world because there was too much work involved in getting the letters and raised panel flat. Mine was a stepside gate, but I assume it is the same. I think the repo gate was about $200. Justified with an hourly labor rate to fix it...
