Re: 1959 short Fleetside Apache AKA "Henry"

I spent the weekend getting the rest of the body into paint. Now its just final assembly. I even gave it its first bath. Looking forward to driving this old truck again.

Thank You! You must be able to read peoples minds haha... I'm already thinking about the next one to get torn apart. I'm thinking Blazer... Everybody says to keep it flat black but I think it deserves a bit of love as well.
