Hit up the local U Pull It, found something ya'll might be interested in.

I was hoping this might fit my 1984 K5 Blazer but dont think it will, but figured someone on here might find this interesting. Its a complete louvered tailgate, its made of metal but surprisingly its not that heavy. It uses spring loaded pins on each side to open and close it. Its in very good shape.

it came off a 1992 Chevy P/UP.

Thats made for towing a 5th wheel trailer.

Yup. Made for towing.

Oh I knew it was a 5th wheel deal , just thought it would be slick to put on the back of a K5 when going topless. Being lightweight and slotted, it would cut down on tailgate drag.

Tailgate up is more aerodynamic...

Ugly tailgate is ugly.
