My plans are to re-wire the truck Front to back , My brother bought this truck 2 years ago been sitting for a while, haven't fired it up since he purchase it. dont know how far im going to go with the project yet but will find out
“Alright, here we go!” - the most wonderful words in all of RU-vid. Can’t wait for some “cuttin’, weldin’ ‘n carryin’ on”. I’m ready for you to “do a number on it”. Along with everyone else, I’m starvin’ for some time in the coolest one-car garage on the planet.
Love your videos please keep them coming. I’m going make a rat rod out of my 1966 C10 short bed with big back window. I got it back in the early 80’s you and your videos have helped me a lot thank you Sir.
Nice. Reminds me of when I got my 55short bed truck started for first time in 2000. Restored to factory condition over a 6year part time working on it. Same 235 6cyl. Three. On tree. Have had lot of fun driving to shows. I’m sure you will enjoy. Working on it. Motor. Is easy working. On. Keep posting videos. Congrat s
I still remember the old 1959 Chevy Apache half ton we had on the dairy. Dad and my uncle got it used. It was dad's everyday driver until the 80s ( then he got a 63 gmc step aside with a 305 v6). I hauled a lot of cattle with it. The first time I drove it on the road, I was 10. You have a beautiful project. I'm excited to watch.
Right on man! Always look forward to your projects! My 64 stepside is in hibernation state now until I get back I learn from you brother. Thank you and God bless!
I was looking at videos yesterday and thought to myself that I'd really like to see more from you, and here you are! I'm excited to watch another build. Keep it up!
been watching and learning as I have a 58 with some big rust issue getting parts together then will start repair watching you videos thanks man keep up the good work
Boy, what a pretty old girl you got there. Sounds good too. Wish we could find trucks like that in Maine. Rust belt extreme. Enjoy her, and thanks for sharing and to your brother.
Great truck man! Funny enough our 64 c10 was originally a very similar color green, and was repainted like yours. I ended up finding the original paint code (and a distributor to get me the paint). It helped with repainting/ touch up big time. Hit me up if you'd like a resource for that.
Right there with everybody else. Love your videos and working on a 59' myself. Hope your brother wants to really work it over. Keep up the good work brother!
Sweet truck, thanks for sharing. A neighbor around the corner has one just like it except in white and I always admire it when I pass by. If it were me I'd just fix the rust and the dent in the pass. fender while keeping as much of the existing paint intact as possible. I'd probably get some flat gray or oxide red colored epoxy sealer and just leave the repairs "primed" (just using a sealer rather than actual primer for better longevity). And of course replace the bed and any mechanical items needed to make it a reliable driver. I'd probably keep the smooth running inline six. My parents had a '53 Chevy 3100 five window pickup with that motor and they're great engines. Although I might be tempted to hop it up a little just for fun. This seems like a nice "survivor" truck that would be a solid driver with not much work. Just my two cents. But, no matter what you end up doing with the truck I'll look forward to seeing it!
Glad this man has another project. His skills, attention to detail, and workmanship is an art form from which everyone - in and out of the business, can learn....and appreciate. Best, CL Corrado
Yes! Im excited you got a 59 . I learned a lot with all your other builds - I currently have 59 apache 62c10 and 62 gmc pick up - my 62s are running and driving - so my next project is my 59 -
Good to see you back sir. That truck looks great. Looks like cab corners & the bed are the worst of it. Looking forward to seeing what you do with this one.
Yes Sir, She's a Sweetheart... Hope Pops is still doing well my friend and enjoying the 63 C10 pick-up still? Glad to see you back... Looking forward to all the fun... Keep On Trucking Brother👍...
@@Gibson63. yes that's what it's all about making memories and having fun together that's what Son's do with there Pop's. I'm so happy for you both my friend and when you get the 59 Apache all complete for your Bro and then pick up an old Chevy truck for your Son you all can go to car show's as a Three Generation Family... Why Cool... Take care my friend and again have fun... Keep On Trucking Brother👍...
