Rebuilt, Rebuildable & Reconstructed

Up for auction is a 1959 Apache 3100 1/2 ton pick up. This truck is not a trailer queen (show truck) I didnt build it to be a show truck, but a truck that I can drive everyday. But it would not take much to turn this truck into a show truck. This truck had a frame off restoration. The frame was cleaned and coated with P.O.R.15 chassis paint and top coated with semi gloss black. The cab was sand blasted and the floor was also coated with P.O.R.15 inside the cab and under the cab. The cab corners were replaced and the cab was mounted to the frame with new hardware. The fenders where also blasted and epoxied primed before the paint was applied. The bed has custom made cyprus wood boards installed with stainless steel bed rails and hardware. The bed chains are new and are stainless steel The hood has new hinges and springs The paint on the truck is a a single stage Firethorn red metallic flake. The paint is not perfect but still looks nice. All the glass in the truck is good, but there is a spot on the corner of the windshield where a piece of gravel came up and popped it. The spot can be fixed but I haven't carried it to the glass shop yet. The front grille, headlight bezels, mirrors and bumpers are chrome and are brand new. The tail light housings are stainless steel and are new also along with thier brackets. The wiring harness is a new easy wire 22 circuit harness that i installed. everything works in the truck headlights, tail lights, blinkers, hazards, horn, etc. the windshield wipers have been converted into electric and are 2 speed wipers. The Good Year tires are brand new on the truck. The truck has a newly rebuilt 327 in it with a new Holley 650 carb with electric choke. I put a Contender intake on the engine and a mild street and strip cam in it. The transmission is a 700r4 automatic with overdrive and with a console shifter. The radiator is a new 3 row aluminum radiator with a custom built fan shroud. I put a serpentine belt system on the engine. Inside the cab you have tilt steering with a Grant custom 15" steering wheel and a set of black leather seats. The driver seat is power the passenger seat is not. The instrument panel is a custom insert to hold the gauges, And the console was custom built for the truck. The gauges are all Autometer guages and all work great. The sunvisors and rear view mirror are new as is the glove box. The door handles and window handles are original to the truck. The headliner has been replaced and new carpet with jute padding installed The front of the original chasis has grafted onto it a front clip from a 78 Camaro. All the parts are new including the disc brakes and brake lines. The rear end is a posi traction and came off a 1979 Trans Am and the drum brakes and lines are new on it also. The gas tank was moved to the rear of the truck frame and is a new 16 gallon tank all fuel lines are new. The truck has dual Flow master exhaust that come out under the bed steps There is no heat or A/C in this truck, although the heater connections are there. and there is a working a/C compressor on the engine The truck has power steering and power brakes This is a great running truck with the rare 327 engine. A nice truck at a fair price that you can jump into and drive any where.

I will give the buyer a notorized affadavit from the state of Alabama staating that a title is not required on vehicles older the 1976, And a signed registrsation, and notorized bill of sale. I have sold trucks to england and florida and the folks never had a problem.

This is a great deal on a very nice truck
