Re: 36 Woodie tailgate
If you look in the book "Famous Ford Woodies" by Lorin Sorensen you will see on page 68 that the tailgate on your '36 is not designed to lay "flat", it tilts up at a slight angle. The tailgate on my '46 also sits up at an angle to allow the hubcap to not hit the bumper. Are you sure the '36 came with a rear bumper, on page 35 of the same book it shows the '36 with no bumper?
