Hows it going. Im stationed at Tinker AFB in OKC but Im not home right now. I've only got a couple of months left and when I get home I'll be finaly starting on my truck. Its a 1959 Chevy apache, stepside. I will not be going back to stock. Its getting a LS1 and T-56 tranny out of my 04 GTO. I've gone as far as I can with the goat and I promised my wife I'd work on the truck. I also want to transfer the IRS rear end into the truck as well. I want to do a 88-98 stepside bed but I havent seen this and I'm scared to commit without some pictures. If anybody could help me out here that would be great. I guess thats about it, let me know what you think.

I'd rather walk and carry a Chevy hub cap than ride in a Ferd.

Welcome V3NOM. Spent several years in OKC so I'm familiar with Tinker. Sounds like an interesting project. I assume the GTO is wrecked?
