not sure where im going but i was thinking 327 (currently 283), it already has auto tranny, but needs floor shifter. i was thinking flat black w/ clear coat. maybe 5 lug swap from a 71/72 to get ps/pb. but all that is a ways off. just looking for ideas. thanks

Am I seeing things, or does it have dual rear wheels?

looks like maybe one wheel laying in front of the other one to get a possible visual??

yea the kids wanted to look at those rims up next to it. i didnt move them away to get pics. i've done mustangs, a 70 chevy (my latest), a 63 ford pu, 85 swb but this is my first effort at an apache. it was $500 so i couldnt pass it up. it runs but it needs a new carb. this will be my 12 yr olds truck when done, so im gonna keep it in primer till i see if he can handle it.
