Vehicle Description
This 1958 Chevrolet Apache Fleetside is a terrific mix of utility
and style. After all, it's a long bed pickup with plenty of glossy
lumber on the floor. And everything from the big black window to
the V8 power makes this two-tone truck an irresistible total
package.
The teal paint has a bright look of a later investment in life, and
it has a good gloss to show off the well-done sheetmetal. This
truck really has a nice sense of style. The cream paint on the roof
goes with the inner grille and sweeping side trim to create a
subtle two-tone. And speaking of the stylish sides, we love that
this is a long bed, because a fleetside is a rarity from this era.
So there's more metal to show off the flush design. And it also
means there's more space for real oak wood lining the bed floor.
There's plenty of brightwork with the bumpers, trim, and two-pieces
wheels. But what will really impress are all the details that keep
this a useful pickup. The bed has tie downs on the side, you have
those long folding mirrors, and there's even a place for a tow ball
on the rear bumper. And the spotlight is always a great-looking
classic piece that can find a use in modern times.
The interior keeps the two-tone theme going on classic pieces like
the door panels, dash, and steering column. There are the right
updated pieces like the carpeting, headliner, and velour cloth
bench seat. You even have provisions for an upgraded radio. But
that big teal steering wheel and fan-style gauge package lets you
know this is a true vintage machine. It's a nice and clean look,
and the big wraparound back window lets in plenty of light so you
can see it all.
Under the hood is an upgrade to a 307 cubic-inch V8. It has the
look of a sturdy powerhouse, and it fires up like one, too. And the
cherry bomb style dual exhaust gives a nice tune to the V8. This
one likes to give an authentic pickup experience that lets you feel
the road. It's a true vintage setup, right down to the
column-shifted three-speed manual transmission.
This Apache Fleetside gives you a cool-looking style wrapped in a
true classic truck experience. For some of us that's pure vintage
heaven. Call today!!!
