Any of you hombres got a top tailgate for a series 2 or 3 that you'd be
willing to part with?

hmmm. I think the shipping would cost more than one I've found locally.
They're a lot rarer than I thought they were...

So rare that I've got at least 2 spare tailgates! And I've just bought
2 more SWB's - a series 3 station wagon that's partially restored and a
IIa pickup that's a "parts only" proposition. So when they arrive
tomorrow that'll be a grand total of 4 in my ownership.

They're rarer than bottom tailgates and rear doors, put it that way.

They're rare because a certain person is hoarding them!
