"Bustin Knuckles" '59 Apache Build

[golfgooroo]

I bought the truck last year and haven't had anytime to work on it but it's definitely time to start tearing into it and get it rolling. The pics below are when I bought it and I've started the tear down. Currently, I have it torn down to the frame and have the front suspension off. I'm still narrowing down which frame ('67 - '72) and I plan to convert from the 6 lug drums to 5 lug disk. Next, I'll look into the 12 bolt rear end make sure it is still strong. I have the 350 from the previous owner but I plan to tear it back down and rebuild it to make sure it's done right. Here's a few pics...
