1961 apache BBW custom 2 owner possible parts
 

So I've found a 1961 Apache BBW SWB custom with.... the rare side rap around trim.... a factory 283... chrome grill....and like I said 2 owners and the guy that currently has it hasn't done anything to it...

now to the down side... its yellow... and has the usual rust but its for sale...

Here are some of the pics that I have of the truck that I might not be able to pass on... what do yal think? fixer...

What do they want for it? Look like with paint and a recovered seat it would be quite a head-turner. And that side trim- I saw Classic Trucks magazine had a slammed feature with said trim. I looked at it and thought it was off a early '60's Buick. You're telling me that's stock?

Re: 1961 apache BBW custom 2 owner
 

BUY IT or ill drive down there and pic it up....LOL

Re: 1961 apache BBW custom 2 owner
 

Yes that side trim is stock... it is very rare... its the deluxe trim package.

Re: 1961 apache BBW custom 2 owner
 

I wish that I could find something like that ... Get It !!! I see it also has a spot light on it .. Ex-State or SVC. Vehicle ??? Plus its a SWB ... Like the color combo also ...:metal:

Re: 1961 apache BBW custom 2 owner
 

i LOVE THAT TRIM

Re: 1961 apache BBW custom 2 owner
 

No the original owner ordered it with every option he could....

Re: 1961 apache BBW custom 2 owner
 

If the price is right why not.I would.

Re: 1961 apache BBW custom 2 owner
 

the trim if it is all straight is probably worth a couple grand by itself....
what is the reddish color along the top of the firewall, and inside the box?

Re: 1961 apache BBW custom 2 owner
 

looks like it would be a good project

Re: 1961 apache BBW custom 2 owner
 

I'd snatch that up in a heartbeat. That truck is really in decent shape, plus it has the CC side trim.

Re: 1961 apache BBW custom 2 owner
 

get it !! So how much?

Re: 1961 apache BBW custom 2 owner
 

Heeey, what's wrong with yellow??LOL
But, I also think that's a pretty barfy shade
Snap it up ,sweet lookin' truck

Re: 1961 apache BBW custom 2 owner
 

so if my wife "lets" me I'm more than likely going to buy this truck....

My main goal to this truck is either to do a complete stock resto. or

to use things on it for my 61' and sell of the rest

My question is does anyone want things off this truck? and if so what?

It has:
the deluxe trim on the side
the deluxe steering wheel
factory radio
factor 283 unmolested
V8 hood emblem
custom trim
drivers side spot light
crome grill/bumpers
deluxe knobs on dash
6 lug ralleys and stock rims and hub caps
and anything else you can see in the pics.

I would keep that truck all together and fix what is broken, replace what is missing & give it a good bath...drive it and enjoy it. Your truck is a living, most unmolested, original survivor and should be given another chance at 40+ more years of life. By parting it, you will be diminishing the overall value of it, but certainly, it is your truck and you can do what you like. As a preservationist and a person with a passion for the '60-'66 Chevy/GMC trucks, I vote for keeping it intact and complete.

:agree::agree:

A truck like that is hard to find. keep it in one piece...scrap something that isnt worth building. I started my whole project with truck no where near as good as that.
