1974 74 Chevy Pickup Truck Tailgate W/ Trim Panel Like Nos 1973 73 1975 75 1976 on 2040-parts.com

New truck take off tailgate with trim panel off of a 1974 Chevy Pickup.  This is not technically NOS since it was put on a pickup, but it is about as close as you can get.  This came out of an estate.  I bought some cars from the estate and was going through some storage sheds getting some other parts when I came across this.  The family said that the truck was bought brand new in 1974.  It was driven off of the local dealers lot straight home.  The tailgate and hinges were removed at that time and then he took the pickup and had a new slide in camper put in that afternoon.  The tailgate and hinges went in the storage shed in the backyard up until a couple of months ago when I came across it.  The gate itself is nice.  Obviously absolutely no rust issues, maybe a few tiny dings from storage, but nothing that really stands out.  If you have a blue/white pickup, the original factory paint still looks pretty good.  The trim panel has a few small dings and scratches, but nothing major at all.  The finish looks outstanding.  The hinges are included.  They are obviously in nice shape with very little wear from the probably 3 or 4 times they were used!  The paint on the latch is chipped at the end, but it is not even worn off of the entire latch.  Since the paint is not even worn off of the latch, this was probably put on at the factory and taken off the day it was sold, that is probably all this gate was ever used.  Very nice piece that looks great for its age.  It is not 100 point perfect, but it is a really nice unit.  Something you probably won't see again!

48 STATES ONLY

I only sell and ship in the 48 states and my Paypal account will only accept payments from within the US. I only sell to buyers with a US address AND a US bank acct.  Just because you can use your buddies address in the 48 states, that does NOT fix the problem with extra fees for exchange rates, non-verified paypal payments from foreign accts., and unconfirmed shipping addresses.  Almost all of the Neg. FBs I have recieved over the last few years have come from these situations where buyers are trying to "bend" the rules, so I have been forced to sell only to buyer in the 48 states. 

MY BUSINESS STRUCTURE

I have been buying and selling classic and special interest cars and parts for 25 years.  I have hundreds of cars and trucks in stock.  Only a fraction of my inventory ever ends up on e-bay.  I get dozens of phone calls and e-mails for parts every week.  E-mails must be specific about the part and vehicle as well as exactly what you want to know.  I don't have time to answer questions that are not clear and I can't guess what you are trying to ask or what kind of car you have.   I do a lot of volume and I have my own shipping accts.  I do not ship through e-bay.  You will need to e-mail me directly with any shipping questions. 

PAYMENT 

I do accept paypal for payment, but I will not accept payments that are e-checks or have un-confirmed shipping addresses or non-verified payments.  Any payments that are flagged with any of these issues,  will be cancelled.  This is due to the way paypals system works.  I do accept other forms of payment, contact me for details.

SHIPPING

My normal shipping day is Friday every week.  With the exception of Holidays, I almost always ship on Fridays.  Anything paid for by Thurs. night will be processed for Fridays shipment.  Anything paid for after Thurs. night will not ship until the following Friday.  Standard shipping takes 8-10 WORKING days.  SHIPPING COSTS HAVE BEEN ESCALATING WITH ALL CARRIERS DUE TO FUEL COSTS!!!!!!!!  Shipping costs also cover packing materials, time, etc.  ALSO, E-bay is now charging me for shipping costs besides the auction fees.

FREIGHT SHIPPING

Large items such as fenders, doors, hoods, etc. will usually need to be shipped UPS oversized or by truck lines.  Some items are better shipping oversized UPS, some have to go tuck lines.  There is no way to determine the actual shipping costs until the part is packaged.  Items that will go oversized UPS can be delivered to residential addresses and will usually ship for $100.00-$150.00.  Items that are too large for UPS oversized, will have to go UPS freight.   Freight does require a commercial business address for the best rates.  Addresses are checked using Google maps.  Only addresses located in accessible business districts are considered commercial, the garage behind your house is not.  There are additional charges for residential deliveries.  Freight shipping will typically run between $100.00-$200.00 in the 48 states.  I am in central KS, so shipments in the middle of the country will typically be on the lower end of that and shipments to the cost are higher.  Residential charges are on top of the shipping cost.  Interested buyers need to take this into consideration when bidding.  There is no possible way to determine exact shipping until something is packaged and I don't have time to package parts that are not sold.  If oversized or freight shipping is going to be too high, then you should not bid on that part.  I do not have Greyhound here.

VEHICLES AND CABS

Buyers have 60 days of free outside storage at the buyers risk.  After 60 days, a storage fee will apply.  If storage fees exceed the purchase price, the vehicle/cab ownership will return to me.  Buyers are responsible for all shipping costs and arrangements.  I do have names and number of transporters that have been here before that I can forward on to interested buyers.
