Well I'm getting closer.... My ole cj5 didn't come from the factory with a tailgate. So I did some fab'n and bought an old beat up tailgate. It turned out purdy good! Had my buddy that does tats draw me a skull&crossbones on the hood for a lil Mad Max action. I can't wait to get this rig in the mud!

so yours had a solid back end, is that what you mean by no tailgate? and you cut it and put that one in place? wow, it looks like it came on it

Yes it was solid across the back. Where it would have been there was a lot of rust so I fog I could get rid of the rust and get a tailgate lol. Cutting wheel on a grinder made a clean cut. I think in 79' you had to get the silver anniversary addition to get a tailgate on a cj5. Thanks y'all hopefully it'll be in a mud hole by deer season.
