That tailgate is actually from the '70s and '80s. Not exactly sure when they went to decals instead of embossing. It can be made to fit a first series box as found on a '49. Contrary to popular belief, my parts manuals tell me that all first series boxes, as found from 1946 through early 1951, used the first series tailgate. The Power-Wagon did not change tailgates in 1949 like the rest of the Dodge truck line did.
