Melanson Motors is proud to offer this Restomod built one-of-a-kind
1959 Chevrolet Apache 3100 known as 'Project Fired'. This is a very
special build which comes with provenance! It was featured at SEMA
and on Autotopia LA, it won an award at GoodGuys, and was a
magazine cover truck for StreetTrucks, a feature truck for Classic
Truck magazine, and a feature truck for GoodGuys magazine. This
Chevrolet Apache body was burnt in the Paradise, California Camp
fire of 2018. The burnt patina body was cleaned and clear coated
before being dropped on a Roadster shop slammed SPEC series
chassis. It was to be both an incredible driver and a wicked
looking truck with nothing else like it. It is a complete Restomod
build with top of the line parts. The suspension is AccuAir Air
ride allowing the truck to sit comfortably at driving height or
skate across the ground slammed right down. It has a 4 link in the
rear with a Watts link. The 6.0L LS was rebuilt with performance
parts by SoCal Auto Salon. It is fuel injected by Holley Sniper
with a Terminator ECU. The engine is mated to a 4 speed automatic
4L80 transmission and a narrowed Ford 9" rear with Eaton TrueTrac.
The brakes have serious stopping power! Wilwood Aero 14" cross
drilled and slotted discs sit at all four corners with 6 piston
calipers up front and 4 piston in the rear. Inside, this truck has
a custom made Snowden bench seat, bespoke steering wheel, Classic
instruments gauge cluster, 1000W custom stereo system, Restomod air
conditioning, power windows, and more! Bespoke Antique Bronze
wheels are fitted measuring 20x9 front and 20x13 rear. Custom
fabricated tubs were installed to help the truck accept the wider
rear wheels. The wood used for the bed is distressed and gives a
perfect patina look. The exhaust is 3" stainless with Borla race
mufflers and it sounds insane! More details are listed below. There
is SO MUCH that gives this truck such character and style. If you
want a one-of-a-kind restomod truck that wins awards everywhere it
goes, but can actually be driven and enjoyed...do not miss this
opportunity! Chassis and Upgrades
