Re: Show us your projects
My 1958 Apache 3100 Stepside. It did run and drive when i bought it but i have since removed the engine (283) and 3 speed tranny to rebuild and freshen up. Got the bed and front end removed this week and im working on painting the frame. Next the cab gets attention. I plan to replace complete wire harness and then suspesion and brakes. Last will be the bodywork,paint, and interior. Wish me luck

Re: Show us your projects
Hey guys, 1959 shortbed fleetside apache owner here.
Had it since '05, been workng on it here & there but mostly cruising it around and enjoying it for the time being. Planning to install a new 350 sometime this spring/summer and also if money/time permits install an air bag suspension. Engine specs: Two bolt main 350 block - stock bore & stroke EB Performer intake manifold topped with an EB 600cfm carb & 14" K&N air filter. Mid-performance 441 cast iron GM heads Corvette Ram Horn exhaust manifolds... not running headers unless I figure out a way to clear the steering box. Engine internals include Comp Cams Xtreme Energy cam (mild cam nothing too special) Comp Cams brand hydraulic lifters, pushrods, springs, rockers etc all matched up for this specific cam. Stock crank & rods, mid performance pistons Here's some photos of what I got going on: |

Here is an earlier pic with it aired out. That is about as low as I can go without hitting the headers. On an original frame. |

Re: Show us your projects
Hey guys,
There are some pics of my truck a few pages back but today my mom found a picture in a box and I just had to share it. The truck looks almost exactly the same as it did then (I just got it this fall). The pic was taken in September 1987, the day my dad brought the truck home, and I am the 4 year old boy on the bumper. Also in the pic is my sister (age 6), my dad, and my old dog B.A. (I bet you can guess what 80's tv show had the character he was named after). I also looked at my rust more closely and I see some major surgury coming soon. And just for the sake of pictures. Here are 2 of my dad's 57 chevy that we are working on. Its in our 4 bay, 2 hoist shop. Sadly the 2 door 57 chevy and the 67 GTO convertable were in the other building so I didn't get any pics of them this weekend. |

Re: Show us your projects
This is my 51 truck that I am re-doing. It is torn apart now. I am putting a dual cavity master cylinder in the stock position. I have had the frame powder coated. It turned out nice.
