    Hi everyone, I'm Dominic! My Grandpa has a 58 Chevrolet Apache that's been sitting in his shop for a LONG time. He's recently gotten back into the restoration game, but thinks his Apache is beyond saving. I, on the other hand, think that this "idea" of his comes from my grandmother constantly calling it a piece of junk and he's had enough. It still has its original body and badges, original and complete engine. All that's missing is it's back windshield and it's left door. It also suffer from the usual aging and ware and tear, so it has a fair share of dents and paint chipping, "It's gotten pretty banged up over the years!" But there's little to no rust. I really want to save this project because I know he really loves that truck. Any Ideas on where to get parts, build guides, Anything to help, please post here! All help is welcome! Thank you for any help you provide.
     
  2. Hay Doc, Welcome to the H.A.M.B. I like the sound of your project. I know that years from now, the truck will be priceless to you. It takes time to find parts, and learn everything you need, to finished a project like that. But that is why you have to do it! This is the best place to be. Everyone likes to help on here. Don't be afraid to ask! I would like to see some photos. Good Luck Ron...
