We've sold over 300 vintage tailgates that our customers have used for rat rods and repurposed into benches, tables, fences or signs.   We generally have several different makes and models, so be sure to view our other auctions and check back often…you never know what Pete will find.


There is a reason they are so popular…the size makes them the perfect bench back or wall hanger and the strength of the old iron, chippy paint and the patina of the oxidized metal make them one-of-a-kind works of art...terrific for a vintage grunge industrial look. 


This tailgate came off an old 40’s Chevy and has an amazing original "grunge" finish.  Secure tailgates wear pink...and this one wears it well.  The perfect amount of white, red and oxidized metal make a great backdrop for the strong red embossed letters accentuated with a bit of black.  Use the zoom feature for an accurate visual description.  Fortunately, we're from dry old Kansas and the metal is still sound...just some character dents from hauling hay and supplies. This could still be used on a ratrod or would make a terrific bench or wall-hanger. 50 5/8" x 15 1/2".

Why LaFerrari was designed in Maranello

Tue, 02 Apr 2013

Love it or hate it, the design of LaFerrari comes completely from one place— Maranello. The most powerful street-legal Ferrari ever made was styled entirely in-house, which means that for the first time in recent memory, a Ferrari wasn't crafted by Pininfarina. An Italian legend in its own right, the design house has created nearly 200 Ferraris dating to the early 1950s.

Bentley designers talk 'Intelligent Details' in movie shot on iPhone

Fri, 16 May 2014

Bentley has released a short documentary featuring director of design, Luc Donckerwolke, and SangYup Lee, its new head of exterior design, taking a ride around New York City in the back of a pair of Mulsannes. Called 'Intelligent Details,' the film sees Donckerwolke and Lee talking about how one of the challenges of designing a successful Bentley interior is to match the car's performance with the expectation of its integrated technology. And to make sure you get the message loud and clear, not only does the video show the Mulsanne's optional smartly integrated iPads, which emerge from the front seat backs at the touch of a button, the whole movie itself was shot on an iPhone 5S (albeit 'enhanced' by some extremely expensive-looking lenses and rigs), then cut together on one of the car's in-built tablets.
