Looking to get back into wheeling and free up some investment cash in the process. Friends who know me are well aware my toy collection changes REGULARLY - this truck being around longer than most mainly due to the depth of build.
Details about the truck:
1959 Apache 3600 (long/fleet) fully optioned truck (Bed trim, 2 tone, spotlight, etc, etc) - lucky score honestly - truck was 100% complete (minus factory wheels) when I rec'd it, including:
Original bill of sale
Original owners manual
Original sales brochure
Pic of original owner
Farm truck with a disconnected odo reading 45k - based on location of truck (IL) and condition I feel this is pretty accurate.
My vision - drive anywhere truck with FI, OD, DB and A/C.
Truck was very solid to start with, but needed a little rust repair attention (cab corners, headlight eyebrows, lower hinge pockets, steps, small spot on bed and small spot around back window). While we were at it I had the body shop bob the bed to SWB specs (sorry for not making it shorter BigWoodyWag), fill in the fuel filler then prep and satin clear the entire truck.
Since I hadn't built a street vehicle and knew I wanted air ride I went the "bolt on" method, I sourced a new (used) SWB frame and spec'd:
Porterbuilt level 3 Dropmembers front and rear (FULLY TIG welded instead of bolted during installation, frame boxed (TIG'd), holes filled, etc.
Ride Tech "Pro" air management (2 compressors, 5 gallon tank, digital controller)
Mix in:
CPP big brake kit & frame mounted power brake booster
Moser M9 fab rear end with 31 spline axles
Currie Nodular 9" with Tru Trac and 3.89 gear
Detroit (Mobsteel) 20x8, 20x9 with Continental DW's
6.0 LQ4 with BTR Stage III truck cam
Locally built 4L60E (new frictions, Vette Servo, Trans Go and small stall)
Vintage A/C
Complete American Autowire Harness
New LS1 DBC Harness
New Felts, rubbers, Front and rear glass - broke while removing
Seat refoamed and upholstered in a period correct material, added memory foam to firm up
Custom carpet, kickpanels, dynamat, etc.
Custom White Oak bed (Satin Clear)
20 Gallon Aluminum fuel tank
Walbro pump, pre / post filters, Vette regulator
Eddie Motorsports billet hinges
PRC 700hp radiator/condenser/Spal fan combo
Custom built "fenderwell" exit headers, Magnaflow mufflers, Stainless works bed exits - all Ceramic coated.
Classic Instrument "Tachforce" gauge cluster
As usual - I am sure I'm forgetting a ton of things. Truck has approximately 5k miles on it - ran the TX leg of PowerTour 2016, 2 trips to Austin for Lonestar Roundup, etc - cold a/c, hot heat -
Truck gets 19mpg at 65 - about 14mpg at 85mph
Truck is located in the DFW area of TX.
Asking price / Trade Value: $60k.
What I would be looking for in trade: Buggies, Jeeps, Yota's on Tons or 9's, Atlas, Links, stickies, v8 or good hp (or crazy lightweight) in the 20-30k range with cash on your end to make up the difference.
For reference - my last 2 buggies were a Spidertrax M2G and a BTF Fusion. Any questions let me know.
