Re: most original 60-66 truck in existence?

Maybe not a true original but we restored it as am original. 1960 Chevrolet Apache 10. 235, hydraulic clutch with correct bellhousing (searched all over for one!), granny low 4spd sm420, rear gears I believe are 3.90s. Got it when I was 12, worked on it with my dad for about a year and a half. Then I continued working on it under an awesome bodyman/painter. There we finished a little over a year later. The only thing we did that's not original is a split manifold (not headers) and 30" glasspacks out back. I drive it a ton but now it's in for winter. I make it a somewhat daily driver. Very cautious how and where I drive it. I'm on original style guy! Customs and hot rods are cool but I'm really into original! And that's the way we restored it! No one my age likes a 6 cylinder but that's the way I like it. In the pictures is my pickup and I with my mentor with his 55 Chevy I'm gonna help him with restoring. That was this last July. Got that crazy restoration bug inside me!
