That's rare for the Lariat emblem to still be intact. I don't think the Lariat emblem was even used on the tailgate panel for very long, I find no mention of it on anything other than 1980 and 1981.

Thanks.  But I fear we are too late as I cannot find the posting with that advert.

LARIAT 85
In reply to this post by 1986F150Six
Thanks, Chief!  

That is a nice looking tailgate finish panel, but it is correct for 1980 - 1984 Lariat models.  I don't *think* the LARIAT nameplate was used on the tailgate after 1981.  

I have a 1985 model with the redesigned tailgate finish panel with the red reflector.  I added the LARIAT nameplate to the tailgate because I really liked it:

Lucille:  1985 Ford F150 XLT Lariat

*Colors:  Dark Canyon Red exterior, Canyon Red interior
*Engine: 5.0, CompCams 31-230-3, "Thumper" E7 heads, Edelbrock Performer intake, Autolite 4100 carburetor, DuraSpark II ignition, Thorley Tri-Y headers, Flowmaster dual exhaust, H-pipe.
*Drivetrain:  AOD transmission, 3.55 gears, 2wd.

Thank you Gary.  I have a couple of nice 85 tailgate panels and a 87 to 90s panel but that one is the one that came on my truck.  Dan
