id sell my soul for tailgates, but havin said that i nearly have everything i need.
im with johno, we found some decent 12v latches on eBay which would work a treat and realy smooth out the look of the back. if you install a duel battery set up with the proper little gizmos so one will always have charge, there wouldnt be a problem with electric latches.
i also want to install an electric actuator or 2 so i can open and close the upper tailgate from an electric window switch or something similar. that way when ya cruisin down the highway with the gate up and you come to some dust or rain or what ever you can shut it without stopping, pritty trick i recon

also try bock in diagonal directions where you can and change directions after each pass to ensure you are blocking the panel evenly. all the high fill primer in the world wont help if you arent anal about your blocking technique. especialy with gloss black. might pay to do a colour sand (wet) before the clear coat to help keep orange peel (the bumpy looking paint, not disimilar to an "orange peel") to a minimum
