Chad,
What a beautiful truck and in the snow, too. I have a 1958 Apache 1/2 ton stepside I bought in 1986 soon after my daughter was born. The story goes something like this:
My plan was to have running and driveable (I towed it home form where I bought it) when my daughter started first grade. I ended up taking it completely, and i do mean completely apart, starting with the engine in 1986/1987. That started my frame-off restoration project. I retained my truck through my divorce and have relocated it twice since 1999/2001 and now have it in the garage, garage attic, and storage building where i have lived since 2001. I am finally able to start working on it after purchasing some needed equipment (MIG welder, compressor, etc). my wife is very encouraging of me to work on it so we can go visit some of the local car shows in the Raleigh area and take it out for Sunday drives. My daughter, now 26, kids me about having it driveable when she gets married. No announcements in the forseeable future, but, I',\m getting busy with my old truck.
Best of luck to you.
