Hey ya'll....I'm Robert, live in Texas, and just started a restore on a 59 Apache 31. My grandmother bought it brand new for my grandfather in 1959 for $1900 at Mahan Motors in DeLeon, Texas. He had it until 1967 when he sold it to my dad. Dad lives in the same town as I do, so I've grown up seeing this truck. He's not a truck guy though, and he got tired of the once-a-month startups and also wanted his space back in the backyard, so I bought it for $1 (offered him $2000 but he wouldn't take it).

Here are some pics:

Now that is a sweet, and considerate, deal as well as a good looking truck. Just keep it in the family for the next 50 years!

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

Thanks....a $1 truck is just too good to pass up smile

I'm pretty much automotive-challenged so it should be an interesting restore....maybe I won't mess it up too bad

Welcome Robert, good deal. I'm also somewhat automotive challenged, at least compared to some of the folks around here. There is sure a lot to learn here, just check in as much as you need to. Good luck.

Leo
