Description:

Our 1959 Chevrolet Apache Fleetside short-bed half-ton pickup is for sale, and photos will be posted soon.

Motor: Olds 455 with slightly radical cam
Transmission: Turbo 400
Rear End: Olds 3:23 ratio
Front Brakes: Disc

This unique '59 is retrofitted with a front clip from the stout-framed1971 Olds 98, so you know that you have disc brakes. When you look at this exquisite frame retrofit, you will wonder how you ever lived with the original '59 frame. The Olds 98's frame is distinctly heftier than the original '59's frame.

The tailgate on this pickup is in superb condition.

At this moment, this truck's retrofitting is incomplete because of the death of a family member which halted progress. This truck has been garaged since 1991.
