Just read your build. Love the way the bed floor turned out.

Re: 1959 short Fleetside Apache AKA "Henry"
The rear roll pan looks great tucked behind the bumper. It really cleans it up. As a result, rethinking my rear bumper setup. Great job. dug

Re: 1959 short Fleetside Apache AKA "Henry"
Thanks guys. I was able to get the cab painted this week and started putting the interior back in. Glad most of the inner work is completed now.

Re: 1959 short Fleetside Apache AKA "Henry"
I was able to get my box painted on the weekend. Hoping to get the bed trim installed this week and maybe even get it back on the chassis.

Re: 1959 short Fleetside Apache AKA "Henry"
MAC
Saw the photo of the carpet doing a "waterfall" from the floor to the step. What a great idea, I've been trying to figure out how to do carpet. I've never liked the carpet just ending at the step with some band aid trim. Going to pirate this idea. Color is great. Keep on keepin on Nut Case

Re: 1959 short Fleetside Apache AKA "Henry"
Thanks Kim! Nut Case glad you were able to use a few ideas from my truck. I like checking out other guys builds to get ideas for mine as well.

Re: 1959 short Fleetside Apache AKA "Henry"
I put the bedside trim on last night. I sure like the look of that trim on these trucks.

Re: 1959 short Fleetside Apache AKA "Henry"
No kidding! That finishes it off perfectly!
Glad to see you didn't go white under the Sgt stripes! What kind of tail light is that? Looks different from stock. Looks good too!

Re: 1959 short Fleetside Apache AKA "Henry"
it almost looks like it is part of the tail light. It did cross my mind to put red reflective tape in there but just decided to leave it painted.

Re: 1959 short Fleetside Apache AKA "Henry"
Thanks Kees! I had to hunt for some time to find that trim and when I did find it I had to pay dearly!!! The fleetside emblems come up on ebay all the time and that's where I found mine. I remember a truck from when I was a kid that had the fleetside emblems and even then I thought that was pretty cool and it always stuck with me that I wanted one of these trucks one day.
