Tailgate restoration

[Milbikes]

I picked up a bunch of parts for my M882 this weekend... power steering box and pump, tailgate, radiator, 16" rims, some other stuff. Came home happy till I discovered that the fire department cut off the lugs that the tailgate goes on, and the lugs for the tailgate straps. Would anyone have some pictures of these that I could use as a reference to fabricate some new ones? Ah, waiting for warm weather here in CT.... I want to do some work on this old-timer.

I could take some for you tomorrow.

Thanks, it would be a big help. Not too many old Dodges around here to look at.

Hope these help

Thanks for the pictures, it gives me a good idea of what to do. I'll try heating a pipe and pressing it with the arbor press to get the flat sides. H.
