1959 Chevrolet Apache Restomod

Description

One of a kind restomod with a great story. This 1959 Apache pick up has been in the family since 1964. It spent most of its life as a farm truck in North Carolina. It was sold in its original condition in 2011 and bought back in the same condition in 2015 to start the restoration process. The restoration was done by Rotisserie Restorations in Griffin, Ga. Interior was designed by Slick Creations and built by Sunnyside Trim. Restoration was completed in July 2017. Over $105k invested.
