Well I regretted having sold my 1946 1/2 ton many times and today I put a deposit down on a 1958 Apache 31. I have not seen the truck in person and would love to hear your feedback, especially with regards to aftermarket or incorrect items. So far I noticed the cut up dash for a radio, speakers in door panels, aftermarket bench seat and steering wheel! Comes with new cab corners and rockers. Looking forward to your feedstock and wisdom! Thanks!! Andy from MD
Welcome back Andy. Post you questions in General Truck Talk and the guys will be happy to pick your purchase apart.

Welcome back! The large rear window is a plus. Also, there is a factory hole in the dash for a radio which would have a block off plate in it. Does yours just have the plate missing, or is it carved up more than that?
Andy, this may seem like a redundant question but I noticed you joined the site back in 2011. We updated the photos program in 2019 to allow bigger images and easier accessibility for most users. Have you tried using the new program since you have returned? You can post up to 5 images per post but if you have more photos than that, just add another post. I’ll leave it be now!

Welcome back! And the truck looks great from what I can tell.
I just snapped this image here in the office and it was a mere 2.5M or so. Uploading it made it 315K. Like my 1/2-ton?? Its completely original as it left the factory. Unrestored and in pristine condition. And get this -- I only paid about $12 for it!! I'm teaching my grandson how to drive it already. He needs to get his stuff out of the back before he scratches the bed ...
Have you seen the image posting info that in the column to the left? Scroll all the way down ...
And again, welcome home!!
