I know that fleetside trim for a 58-9 is impossible to find, so a friend of mine said he could air brush it on. Has anyone seen this done? He is really good with his airbrush, but I'm still skeptical. I would probably have him do all the trim and save the cost of the V-8 emblem as well. Any Ideas? ohwell


They named it Apache cause it has a patchy welded here and a patchy welded there.

I saw it once on a 57 chevy wagon, looked real! had to touch it to believe it. I'm sure the artist plays a big role on the way it turns out.

I had that idea too, but will probably just do 2 tone with the torpedoes in black, but it is tempting. If you do it PLEASE post pics!!!

I recently saw a Goodguys magazine with a '66 Chevy panel with the custom body side molding/trim airbrushed. It looked authentic and could not be distinguished from the real deal, unless you touched it. I have seen this done before on Overhaulin, as well. Great idea and no maintenance or holes in your sheet metal. Let us know how if turns out.
