Just yesterday, purchased a 59' Apache from auction and it will be coming home to my shop this week. A bit about me: Retired auto shop owner/technician - Land Rover emphasis Always loved cars, used to scout junk yards as a kid with my dad New to the classic truck world and eager to learn! Shout out to those who have helped me so far on my purchase. Last edited by Peggy M; 05/29/2024 9:57 PM.

Was fun to watch the exchange. Glad to see you post here -- getting to know you a little better. ~ Peggy M 1949 Chevrolet 3804 "Charlie" - The Stovebolt Flagship In the Gallery "We make a living by what we get; we make a life by what we give." -- Winston Churchill

I looked through the link you posted in General Truck Talk (GTT) of your soon to be delivered truck find. Looks outstanding and you have a good starting place for your project. As you said, you already have shop and truck related skills to begin wrench turning on your new classic truck. You will transition into our madness just fine. There are a huge group of Task Force trucks lovers here and members who have incredible knowledge and experiences to share to boot. Anytime you get stumped, or just have a question that your not sure of, ask away! We are here to help! BTW - If you are looking for some inspiration for your project, take a look in The Task Force Galleries Looking forward to your future posts and pictures (lots and lots off pictures please).
