For helping keep this great
old truck web site
on the Internet for over 30 years! and not clogged down with Ads! Again, thanks! | | | | Joined: May 2009 Posts: 12 New Guy | | New Guy Joined: May 2009 Posts: 12 | I will take a minute and post to this forum. I purchased a project 1959 Apache 3600 after my Daughter showed interest in the older trucks once cleaned up a bit. We looked on the local craigslist and found ours for sale, were able to pick the truck up for $400.00 and we drove it home that day, has the 283 V8 and 4-speed trans. Stepside, real workable truck I think. So check out some pics on our photobucket site. you can also see my newest addition "the '51 2 ton" http://s1131.photobucket.com/albums/m552/50deluxe09/

I am looking at a similar 58 Apache with the V8. | | | | | Joined: May 2009 Posts: 12 New Guy | | New Guy Joined: May 2009 Posts: 12 | You got it right $400.00, I was shocked when I found it, and the guy hadn't sold it yet... The cheapest one I have seen since was listed for around $2500 and didn't run.
