    I tried to buy this 1959 Apache in the fall,but the guy wouldn't sell,so I left my phone number with him and told him if he ever changed his mind to give me a call.
    Well he called a few days ago and offered the truck to me for half what I expected to pay.He's already paid and I have the ***le in hand.Hope to pick up the truck tomorrow.It has a 327 in it with 4 on the floor.Floors and steps are mint with no rust.Fresh gas and bleed the brakes this thing should be on the road pretty quick.:D
    Here's a couple of pics:

  5. always like it when that happens...you ask him what he wants for the thing and he saws a price that causes your heart to skip a beat...ya gotta act calm just in case he realizes that he's giving away the farm...err truck...have fun and get her rollin through the Rockies

    Looks like its in great shape. Now seriously, you're already planning on dropping a caddy 500 in it, aren't you??!!:D

    See you on the salt,

    nice truck. great story too.

    I can imagine he sat there at the front of the house looking out the window at the truck with your number in his hand thinking "will I ever really get to it, or will that guy really care for it?" Looks like he made the right choice
