Finally finished it!I've been restoring a 1959 Chevrolet Apache pickup for the last 3 1/2 years. My Dad and I did all of the work ourselves. When I bought it, it was basically a frame, cab, and boxes of rusty parts.
I knew that we had our work cut out for us, but I never dreamed it would be this much work!
The list of upgrades includes:
All rusted panels cut out and replaced with new metal.
1979 Camaro subframe
Firewall mounted Master Cylinder
Chevy Caprice rear end
305 Cubic inch V8
Turbo 350 automatic transmission
Chevy 5 bolt Rally wheels with 1959 truck hubcaps
Custom mix acrylic enamel paint( the color was mixed by my wife, we call it Sarah's Blue)
Tilt steering wheel
I just brought the truck home yesterday. Everywhere I go, it's like a 1 truck parade!
I couldn't have done it without my Dad, and I appreciate the help.
I also am thankful to my wife, who was very supportive of a far away dream that finally came true.
