Re: 1958 Apache 38 Dually Dump Project
Those mirrors look nice and fit your build theme. How's everything in OK?

Re: 1958 Apache 38 Dually Dump Project
We just had another kiddo about a month ago. We're doing the same. Just trying to keep up. Things have been super busy lately.

Re: 1958 Apache 38 Dually Dump Project
Started fooling with this again...not running yet, but pulled it out of the shop to get the inner steps bed-lined. I'm gonna work on the interior a bit.

Re: 1958 Apache 38 Dually Dump Project
Sometimes you just need a bit of a brake, glad to see your getting back at it.

Re: 1958 Apache 38 Dually Dump Project
Had some time Monday to finish Dynamatting the cab...tranny tunnel and up under the dash. I picked up the re-covered visors today...I like the look.

Re: 1958 Apache 38 Dually Dump Project
I see you're using a stock speaker box. Tried searching your thread for details but didn't find any on how you did the speaker(s), wiring etc. Any details you can share? Great build!

We may incorporate a back-up camera monitor in the box, but haven't decided that for sure yet.

Re: 1958 Apache 38 Dually Dump Project
Thanks. I had thought of putting a couple of gauges up there once but a back-up monitor/screen is a great idea. I'll keep an eye out to see what you do.

Re: 1958 Apache 38 Dually Dump Project
I just read through the whole build , Great Project , fantastic fab skills love the truck !
But if one were to name it or have a theme it would have to be something along the lines of Swiss Cheese , what with all the dimple dies and holes . I can see a Logo on the doors now ![]()

Re: 1958 Apache 38 Dually Dump Project
What a difference a Logo makes ...
Went from "ya it has potential" to "Cool" , "Was it a station truck ?" These were some of the comments it got a the local Chevy Show a year apart .

Re: 1958 Apache 38 Dually Dump Project
I've been holding off putting stock interior door handles on...just didn't do much for me. My son and I were playing around with ideas and designed these, we asked Mike's Billet Mirrors out of San Marcos, Texas (same guy that did our mirrors) to build these for us.

Re: 1958 Apache 38 Dually Dump Project
looks awesome, and a little intimidating for the pushcart car crowd, haha
have you done an alignment? maybe just the pics but wheels look toe'd out. that'll burn tires off fast if so. love the metalwork detail. great job, thanks for posting. |
