Lower tailgate

Postby El Conestoga » 2005 Feb 17 Thu 10:26 pm

Will a lower tailgate off a 1957 Studebaker stationwagon fit a 1954 Conestoga? The part numbers are different, so I am wondering what are the differences.

While I don't know for "sure"...if it has the correct outer shape....the hump for the handle....it will fit.
Though the hinge mounting may be a little different, they "supposedly" are interchangeable with a little work.

I've got an NOS 59 Lark tailgate, visually...it looks exactly like the 54 tailgate. I hope I never need to fit it to the 54 (for what ever reason)!!!!!!!!!!!!

Good luck.
Let us know what you find.
