    Does anyone know how similar a 70 galaxy tailgate is WRT a 1971 torino tailgate?

    It seems that there's more parts available for the galaxy, but i'm having trouble finding any parts x-ref to determine what i would have to change ...

    The two are totally different, although some of the things like lock cylinders and hinges may interchange. But he Galaxie was a full sized car in a full frame, and the Torino was a mid sized car and in 71 on a unibody platform.
