This 1959 Chevrolet Apache 3100 is a fusion of classic American truck design and modern muscle. The black paint accentuates its bold, squared-off body lines with custom touches like the bumper delete, louvered panels, and bullet decorations on the tailgate, giving this Apache a unique personality. The staggered Boss wheels - 17 inches up front and 18 inches in the rear - provide an aggressive stance, while the 225/55ZR17 front and 255/45ZR18 rear tires offer plenty of grip for this powerful pickup.
The maroon and black interior creates a bold contrast to the exterior. The cloth bench seat provides comfort for cruising, while the column shifter for the 3-speed automatic transmission keeps things period-correct. Modern amenities like air conditioning and an AM/FM CD player blend seamlessly with the vintage aesthetics, offering a comfortable driving experience. The custom steering wheel and under-dash AC vents show attention to detail in modernization.
Pop the hood, and you'll find a 350 V8 crate engine, a significant upgrade from the original powerplant. This engine breathes through a Weiand intake and Mallory distributor while an aluminum radiator keeps things cool. The shorty headers feed into a dual exhaust system, likely producing a satisfying rumble. The TH350 automatic transmission and upgraded 10-bolt rear end efficiently put the power to the pavement. The front clip from a Camaro or Nova hints at improved handling characteristics with its control arm and coil spring setup.
