This 1958 Chevy 3100 Apache is a really cool truck that was restored and converted to 4WD. The lat owner built and restored this truck to be a fun summer daily driver over a 4 year period but unfortunately became ill and was never really able to do that. It was a frame-off restoration but was done to be a nice driver that he could drive to local car shows. He only put around 10 miles on it when it was completed last year and we put the other miles on it. The body is clean. The cab and hood are original and were really nice to begin with. The front fenders are new and the bed is completely new with a nice wooden floor. It was painted in the factory color of Tartan Turquoise but we do not know if it was the original color. The paint is nice but it is not high show quality. All of the trim and chrome is new and excellent. The glass in the truck is all original and has some delamination on the edges. The underside is super clean and we found no rust issues with this truck.

The interior is really nice and the inside of the cab was also repainted. The original seat was reupholstered and it has a new headliner and new rubber mat. Most of the interior chrome was replaced with new. The headlights, taillights, brakelights, and turn signals are all working. The gauges all work. The horn, heater, and windshield wipers work. It has a nice aftermarket stereo that is also working.

Mechanically this truck is excellent and it runs and drives wonderful. The truck was built on a 1978 Chevy Short-Bed 4x4 frame and chassis. They did an excellent job integrating this build and the truck drives so much nicer than a regular 1958. The truck is titled as a 1958. This conversion gives you the 4x4, power steering, and power front disc brakes. It also gives the better modern axles and an automatic transmission. The engine is the 235 Inline 6 cylinder this truck would have come with. According to the numbers we found on the engine it is a 1958 Block. When the truck was restored the engine was rebuilt, The engine compartment is super clean and the engine is stock. It does have an aluminum radiator. It has a Turbo 350 Automatic transmission that shifts nice. It was installed with an adapter kit. It is mated to the np203 transfer case and the 4WD works like it should. The rear axle is a GM 12 Bolt with 3.42 gears. The front axle is a 10 Bolt with 3.42 gears. It has a new wiring harness. The in cab fuel tank was relocated under the bed in the rear. It is sitting on a nice set of wagon wheels with new 31 Inch All Terrain tires.
