I'm looking for pictures and ideas on narrowing a 79 F-150 tailgate to fit a 74 Early Bronco.

No pics.... Sorry.

But why cant you take a shit load of measurements, from the bronco? Then proceed to de-skin the f-150 tail gate. Trim accordingly and re-skin the outers?

***EDIT... disregard anything I said. That sounds stupid, even to my drunk a$$.

Sorry man.

That was what I was going to do with measuring and cutting. I just wanted to see if anyone had advice or ideas on it.

Wrong body style... 67-72 matches an early bronco.
