Re: Hi ! I am new to this site and feel a bit lost?

I have a 1959 Apache Series 3100.

It is in a running condition, but not licenced or registered.

I bought it about nine moths ago. It how ever needs a respray as
the previous spray job was not done very good. I am thinking of restoring it to its origanal state.

I live in South Africa.

The search feature is your friend. Need to find a site like photobucket and post them to it. Then link it to the thread.

Forgot- Welcome aboard.

I was really curious about this ride from So Africa. So I hopped in the fastest ride I have and zoomed down there and fetched a picture. They all were still asleep when I took the picture! (not really)IMO this 1959 is ROAD ready. Check out the steering wheel,Cool eh! Mail delivery ride here.

Re: Hi ! I am new to this site and feel a bit lost?

Nice! Looks road ready to me. I'm always a fan of chrome though, but it definitely looks ready to work for it's board and keep. Not all trucks have to be ready for a night on the town. Trucks were made to work. I almost forget that sometimes, lol
