New Guy With a 64
I was looking for an Apache, and I searched far and wide. Then I found this, fell in love, and realized that it would cost about 5x what I bought it for to complete a similar project. So I bought it. I haven't taken any photos since it is snowy and sh*tty out. Let me know what you think.
                           Chopped and lowered 468 CI Big Block Ground Pounder (Pro built) Merlin heads and intake, Hooker headers Turbo 400 with TCI Converter Camaro sub frame and brakes Air Ride suspension 9” Ford rear 3.50 gear Tilt steering wheel Power steering Power brakes Front Disc |

Re: New Guy With a 64
Certainly is photogenic. Now that you have it that nice, it's time to tear it apart and do even more stuff to it.

Re: New Guy With a 64
What's not to love?!! That is one of the most beautiful trucks I've ever seen. Fantastic chop, not too much or too little. There’s no end to the superlatives I could use. The only thing it could use is some beautiful fenderwell headers! And welcome to the forum!!

Re: New Guy With a 64
Welcome to the forum
 Wow! that is a very nice truck  You don't see many of this vintage of trucks that are chopped. Looks like about all that is left to do is drive it. Or do you have plans for some changes?

Re: New Guy With a 64
My plans right now consist of some purple underglow, double bookshelf wing, and custom dragon graphics...
I will get more pics once it gets nicer out here. My real plans are still up in the air. Maybe new wheels. Waiting to find the right ones. (I am thinking about smoothies, painted black in the center, with chrome center caps). Or similar wheels, that are 18-20s, or something simple and a little larger. Next is upgrading that airride. Clean up the compressor/tank set up and maybe go electronic. I just made a speaker setup that is behind my dash, and cd player in the glove box. The last thing that potentially comes to mind is doing a vintage air kit... But I want my windows down anyway, so that's just an afterthought. Do you guys have any ideas? Suggestions? Criticisms? |

Re: New Guy With a 64
Not much i would do with that beauty,maybe flip the rear bumper and check those lowering blocks on the rear.Alot of money and time went into that truck.i like the smooth dash and the wheels and a big block.

Re: New Guy With a 64
Very nicely done ride! I like the subtle chop top yet the rear window is still the same size.

Re: New Guy With a 64
Welcome, that is really cool. I dig the interior, the tonneau cover on the bed is perfect. All it needs is maybe some custom pinstriping (my .02). Enjoy your find.
