    1972 jeep j2000

    I just bought a 1972 j2000. I'm pretty sure I overpayed for it but wanted the truck. It has 42,000 original miles and pretty good shape. I am having a fit finding a tailgate. Also leaning to drivers side a bit. Any ideas on tailgate? Too original to modify with aftermarket... Thanks ..
