Do my eyes decieve me or is that a working tailgate on that? Looks like it, and congratulations if it is, I'm fed up with seeing "pickup" conversions without one, (presumably because it was too difficult to do) which to me is just a two door with a large birdbath on the back. I really hope I'm right, as that looks a really good looking job to me. Me likey!

Very convincing Gimp (or Photoshop?) work, it's only really the image showing the inside of the bed that gives the game away.

Build it, you know it makes sense!

Thanks mate , yes its a working tailgate , as far as I'm aware its the only conversion that has been done that actually has a working one

Sorry I doubted you, if you'd posted these two initially:



It would have looked more convincing.
