got the brass liftgate yesterday fom Hotrodder ( thanks again dude! ) and its awesome. for someone that deals with liftgates and straightening, seeing something like this is the holy grail for me. its freakin heavy! i even put it on my car , its not bent and the brackets on the back line up perfect. even tho i wasnt 100% satisfied with the fit, but its pretty good for not straightening. im guessing this is how Gm envisioned the fit to be. i still think my liftgates line up better, but im just picky like that. i tapped a couple of the threads and the brass is bright yellow! debating whether im gonna strip the chrome and have my plater polish out the brass. i plan to use this is as a prop for my business and will never sell it. check out the pictures...you can see the differences between a potmetal gate and the brass.
only complaints about the fit about this gate, the glass was super tight, i like to give a little more breathing room with my gates that i restore. the rails didnt line up the greatest, and the gaps on all ends werent perfect. but overall pretty cool stuff.
