Welcome Mike, good to see young people such as yourself get interested in these old trucks. The first truck I ever drove at the farm I worked at was an Apache as you describe. I hauled fence posts with it, but I was supposed to use the wheelbarrow as I was about 13.
Speaking of "way up north", my son was in St Jean sur Richelieu in boot camp, that's north of you.
Good luck with changing out that clutch, not too difficult, actually.
Leo
