I just bought a '55 Country Sedan Wagon. Unfortunately, the previous owner lost the tailgate hardware for the car. I have no clue as to what parts I even have to look for in able to close/lock my tailgate. I have seen a few pictures online but only from the outside. Could someone please post a picture(s) of what I need. Does the licence plate bracket/light have anything to do with the lower tailgate operation; I noticed the bracket is hinged? Any clues as to where I could find the parts I need?

Thanks for any help.
