Re: 1959 short Fleetside Apache AKA "Henry"

My youngest son has been a huge help these days. Glad to see that both of my boys have the old car bug.

Looks pretty shiny! I like how you spot check your gun!
Glad you've got your sons involved! They'll remember those times forever!

Re: 1959 short Fleetside Apache AKA "Henry"

Thanks dug224 and BC toy chest. Really getting motivated to get this truck back together these days. I would like to get the cab painted in and out soon so I can put that back together. I gave the cab a final block last night and now just have to go over it by hand and make sure its good so I can spray it. I would post up a picture but it just looks really dusty!
