I have been trying to improve the look of my original hub caps. I finally have 4 pretty good ones. I thought I saw a vendor somewhere that sold a set of stickers that could be used for the four black bow ties on each hub cap. However, I cannot seem to find an appropriate source now. Does...

OK, I am still looking for power steering options for a modified 1959 1/2 ton truck. I've read several threads about various IFS kits (I really like this but do not like the cost or the work involved). I've read several threads about using a late model camaro subframe (again, the work...

I finally got the correct lights that fit the rear fender for my original truck. So, I replaced the lights this weekend. Now I have a problem: With the lights off, when I hit the brakes, both elements of the 1157 bulb lights (this is OK for daytime driving but I do not think it is correct)...

I am looking for a good Line Drawing or Vector Image of a 1959 Chevy Fleet Side truck (Short Bed preferred but not necessary). I want to pull this into Photoshop and start playing with Color combinations so a angled view of the front and one side qould be best. However, I'll accept anything...

Hey guys, I'm looking for a set of original rear leaf springs. It would really be good if you were somewhere close to Texas. Send me a message if you have a pair that you are interested in selling!

OK, the passenger door has been poorly aligned since I purchased my truck. I got a new set of hinges hoping that would help. It may have helped but not that I can tell. So, I still have to lift the door when I close it so that it will close and latch. Once closed the gap at the back of the...

I am looking for an original (non rotted) bed slat. The bed of Blue Thunder is in pretty good shape for an original 50 year old wood bed. Unfortunately, the center slat has two hole cut in it because the guys that moved the gas tank messed up. I would love to keep this original bed since I...

I am looking for a full set of rear leaf springs for a Chevy 1/2 Ton Truck. I live near Dallas Texas so it would be helpful if the springs were somewhere near there.

OK, I am ready to tear the truck down for the winter. One of the projects I intend to tackle is Mustang II IFS. So, as usual, I have a few questions for those of you who have done this..... I see kits ranging from $1,200 to $2,500 that are specifically intended to be used in a 1959 Chevy...

OK, I am looking for opinions here. I need to fix my dash. I have the following issues: 1). The ignition hole is no longer needed. 2). The Choke cable was removed and that now contains a gauge which I will soon no longer need. Unfortunately the original hole has been enlarged. 3). The...

I have a brake light problem. The brake lights and the turn indicators all work fine when the lights are off. However, with the head lights on, the brake lights do not work at all. This truck was rewired before I purchased it, so it has an aftermarket wiring harness in it and the original light...

I need to replace the clutch in my 1959 original truck. This truck still has the straight 6 235 and the three speed on the tree. I am hoping someone here can tell me if the stock clutch is the 9 inch or the 11 inch. I am not sure which I have and have not been able to find a definitive...

I have a heavily modified truck that I need some advise about. It has been lowered 6 inches. This was done by the previous owners and I am not completely certain how the task was accomplished. However, I do know that the rear only has one leaf spring and I think the front has dropped...

I have a 1959 Apache 32, I am in need of a stock wheel but can not find one in your catalog. Do you have these available?

Anyone know what the stock wheel size is for a 1959 Apache 3200? I need an additional wheel for a spare, I've been looking on e-bay and found a few possible candidates but I need a few more specifics about the wheel before I buy. I know the diameter is 15 inches (which actually measures 16...

I would like to cleanup and repaint the frame on my 1959 Apache. I do not really have the space to do a body off restoration, can I accomplish this task reasonably without removing the body? Has any one out there done a cleanup and repaint of the frame without removing the body, or should I...

I would like to beef up the performance in my 1959 Long Bed Step Side straight six 235. I have seen the fenton split headers and fenton dual intake on our sponsors website. Before I buy I would like some comments form other folks that are using these products. I am also open to other ideas...

I have a beautiful 1959 Apache that still has the original generator. I plan to show the truck as stock. Would I be ruining my chances of winning by replacing the generator with an alternator?
