Old Chevrolet Tailgate

Can you tell what this is? I could right away-it's a tailgate from an old Chevrolet pickup truck. I know it's a little rusty, but I love this color. For $10 I just had to have it. I'm going to put it in the loft of my sale barn until I figure out what to do with it! I felt like the American Pickers when I found it last week at a garage sale!
