Re: My 1959 apache project

Nice work on your truck, and a score on that big window, I actually grew up in Marysville, down there several times a year, I could sure use those doors in the background of that picture, was that in Marysville/Yuba City area?

Re: My 1959 apache project

I am in Crescent City ca. on the coast next to the Oregon border. Can private message me the contact information on those doors? I sure would appreciate it, I think I know the place on garden hwy, there's a 50's tow truck out front? cant remember the name, some kind of auto repair place.

thanks

Re: My 1959 apache project

that's ok, it's still a cool picture for your build file.. I did the same thing when I layed the body out on the floor of the shop and stuffed some rims and tires under it. it looked 100% slammed and I loved the look. But in reality, we can't all have THAT low of a truck if we want to drive it on normal streets.

What brand and size of tires did you use?
