is there a difference between any of the 73-87 tailgates? i have noticed that some have an indention and some dont. I want the tailgate that doesnt have the indention and i want to relocate the handle. can anyone tell me if there are differences or what years are the better years? this is the year that i want..

What I do is look on Autotrader.com or Ebay.com for those year model vehicles for sale to see what is on them.
BTW, they make a skin you weld over your existing gate to smooth it out.

ALL 73-87 tailgates have the indentation. The actual Silverados of the bunch used an aluminum filler to give it a smoother appearance. What you are showing in that pic is a custom job.
