'59 Apache 38.....

The 50's side of the board seems to be kinda' quiet....
So I'm thinkin' I'll share a bit on my 59' project.
First are pic's of the day I pulled it out of the black-berries....for a $100 bill.
Then at my place.....and then some random shots of the progress.......

Re: '59 Apache 38.....

more..
The bed is being built with hauling my mini-track loader....(Ditchwitch SK-500) in mind.
Under the pro-tech side boxes are the stowed ramps for loading the SK-500.
It's in a state of mock-up.....gettin' there on the fab-work.
More pic's of the body & interior pretty quick.
The frame horn mod's are to accommodate the front leaf's for the frt. drive axle.

Ya baby...
