YES, I about **** myself when he told me

It sat out in a Pasture
IT RAN
BAD TIRES


I about Cried

I wish I would of come across it first



It smells like a old truck should Lol, Id like to drive it sometime before he converts it

He said if I find my pawpaws and its a Chevy now, I can use his Grille to convert it into a GMC again
Although I hope the new owner has trashed the fenders or grille

Thanks man, it seems like this thread has gone Viral LOL

[SCHRUMGMC]

When I find my Pawpaws 71 or get the 59 GMC

I WILL NEVER,EVER,EVER X10000 get a Wood BED Lol

Well, you've got the vin. That is the biggest obstacle in finding a classic car. I didn't read through the whole thread but, it appears that you're confident it wasn't parted so it is likely in a garage being restored. It had a really cool patina, so if the right guy bought it, he may not touch the paint.

But, if you keep searching it'll turn up eventually. And hopefully he isn't converting it to a Chevy.

I haven't seen it down this way, but I'll keep an eye out

You need to sell off everything you own to get that '59 Apache, otherwise you will be posting this same thread in a few years in the 55-59 forum.

Thanks man, I just hope its not a FULL Restore, and yea the 59 I would like to get
Haha I will take donations !!!

But with the 59 the people told me they would sell it to me, and possibly only me because they know I was the Original owners family

[SCHRUMGMC]

The kid who bought it from us
Took off the mirrors
The Original Hood, scrapped it..Instead of putting new hinges on it
Put corvette wheels one it
Took off the molding
Took out the carpet

And had it running

THEN SOLD IT

I mean come on he basically Raped the thing




I just hope I can find it, Heck the Guy is older then me and I havent ever worked on a Truck, and Id know to out new hinges on it...Leave the Mirrors on it, they were the original ones.He had told me they were put on there...As for the Camper top it was hauled off as well

[50bomb]

Dude get the 59 gmc truck. That thing is tight.

[SCHRUMGMC]

I am so broke right now, My UPS Job was only Seasonal...

They want 2,500
Id like to get it at 2,000

Im taking donations at my Paypal LOL

[SCHRUMGMC]

I GOT AN UPDATE
POSSIBLE INFO leading to this TRUCK !!!!!!

Daveys Auto Parts up in Claremont, NC ????


LETS HOPE AND PRAY
