85/86 Lariat tailgate panel

Fryeken
Anyone have a spare 85/86 lariat tailgate panel?  Mine is missing the red reflective insert. Thanks!

If you aren't concerned with being year-correct, you can branch out to the next gen trucks also. The font will be different and some had black inserts but I see a lot more of them around than the 85/86 ones.

I've had that one saved to keep an eye on what it goes for out of curiosity but the red insert looks pretty rough...but it is present.

I have a panel from a 96 that I was looking at swapping out the red panel onto mine.
I also saw this one and was thinking about it, and trying to source the letters from salvage yards.

Removed because wrong. Shaun is correct - stepped into the parking lot and looked at a coworkers truck to confirm.

Let's try 86?-92 Ranger for that last panel. The panel is the same 83-92, but somewhere around 85 or 86 the early FORD script was replaced by a blue oval.
