I like your plan. Fix the rust issues, leave the 6 shooter in it or transplant a nicer one. Don't lower it. Put the highway rear end in it so it can run a bit faster, and generally upgrade it but leave the patina. Oh and probably should do something with the truck bed so you can haul stuff with it. Love the stuff you do Brent.

It's a absolute joy to see this truck running again. Cars today are to complicated and will never have the style and simplicity of the old cars. Great job Brent as always....

I wish I could score a vintage truck right about now Brent! But if I can't have it, at least it's going to a good home in the wilds of Manitoba! 😆

My dream truck ❤️

I love it when he starts laughing when he first gets the engine started. Agree, this is one of the best car channels.

There is something cathartic, about watching someone with your abilities, a pry bar in one hand and a bottle of hot sauce in the other, grind on an ol Chevy 6 banger, from the comfort of my Lazy boy. I may end up liking being old.

My favorite truck, year, all good!

Well that's a pretty nice old truck!

What a beauty!!!!

That is a real beauty . The neatest hood I’ve ever seen

Oh yesssss!!! Love this blue diamond in the rough! Pull it home, pull the engine, take a cruise, come back and drop another engine in and she fires!! All in a days work for you!!! Love it!! Love Your videos love this truck!!! Great job !!!what a nice find! Make it a great driver love the color too 💙 I think drop the back would be cool too 👍🏻

Just love those old 58 59 Chevy trucks . Nice one make good cruiser . Enjoy watching .

I will never unsub this channel, Brent. Love watching your sheenanigans. Nice motor btw.

I am a 58 model I'm 64 years old and the 55-58 Chevy Apache is my favorite truck body style . My Grandfather (moms dad) inherited a 57 Apache from my Grandmothers Dad , my Great Grandfather . My job when we went for a ride was pushing the floor start button . When my Grandad finally parked the truck the steering box was bad but motor still ran . i was in my early 20s , i wanted that truck , he told me come get it . But i wasn't able at that time so my cousin went and got it . Thats ok cause it stayed in the family 3 generations for that truck .

I'm sure "Betty blue" will get her makeover soon. Please leave her as a stepside. Hehe.

That is a very nice project truck. Like you said just a few minor upgrades and tidy up the rust holes. I enjoys the budget rebuild stuff you do. Fix it like it was done in old days. Enjoy the video. Keep them coming

Nice Truck! Badging is for 59. 64-early 70 truck 12 bolt it is the same width as the original 10 bolt that’s on it. You can get 8” wide wheels on the back. You would only need to flip the perches. A small block will work with the same perches so long as you have a block with tapped holes in the front.

Wow... what a find! Sweet 58' Apache!

Love it! You gotta keep it and stock.

Excellent work ! Thanks love pablo

I'd soak it in marvel mystery oil& transmission fluid down in through the spark plug holes. At least that way while waiting to finish up your other projects first. It'll give more time to soak.& Seep through the cylinders.& Oil rings to free up faster to by doing that process.

Brent, your ending music and drone shots are so beautifully done. Cheers to you and your team. That 58 Apache is a classic, you should definitely keep it and beautify it in your way.

Wow brother I am jealous this is my dream chevy pickup a 58 or 59 at least I get to watch what you do with it. Truly amazing truck Gratz brother 🙌 👏

Dude, I been wanting one of those for years!!! You are so lucky!!! Man, I would restomod that old girl and make it mint!!! A '58 Apache!!!! WOW!!!!

The General is looking right at home doing some work!

Brent, you always bring good memories back of good times in my life. Like 235 cubic inches, dual strombergs, dual exhaust, and sweet Jaguar engine sound while cruising. The 1958 is nice, I know you will made us old heads jealous of those good times. Keep up the excellent work.

I absolutely love these trucks! One day I’ll hopefully find one….that is if you don’t find them first lol

The motor you took out is a 261, worth opening up to assess. You can tell it’s a 261 because of the way that it is. (The captains bars cast in the block beside the base of the distributor denotes a 261) Really enjoying your content Brent!

Yes sir that would be the case as that 1/2 ton pickup generally used the 235, but there is nothing to say that it is not original or possibly it could have been ordered that way from the selling dealer. Engine may be salvageable you never know.

Many dogs will obey the command "Sit !!" Pablo's the only one I've seen where "Have a seat Bud." works perfectly.😂👍

The General is such a magnificent vehicle and would be a proud addition to any repair companies fleet.

Had a friend in high-school that had one of these. Lots of good memories in that old ride for sure!

Very nice Apache Brent. First year for the quad headlights.

Apache is an absolute icon. Body style never gets old. Another great revival.

That’s a great lookin’ truck! Keep her stock, fix the rust, change the rear. A nice driver.

Stock, the heater controls are to the right of the radio. Your dash has a heater delete plate. I believe your NAPCO truck and this truck should have the same heater and controls from the factory.

Sweeeeet 1958 Chevy Apache!! I LIKE that color as well.

I like the stance as it is but a hot small block and taller rear end would be perfect. You’ve made it come alive and it’s a sweet ride.

Meh, it's been done. Over and over and over and over and over and over - snxxx.

Love this, recycle the engine you pulled out of the previous build. And feel that it had the Pablo seal of approval. I say drop it and keep the straight 6.

Nice save. Looks like a sweet truck.

Another nice rig saved from the elements of time. It’s only original once. Love the patina. Can’t wait to see you put your touch to this truck. Loved seeing Pablo happy as can be riding shot gun. Great video. Thanks for sharing.

Good find, will be a nice truck!

Awesome truck. I have a ” BIG” window 55 and drive it daily Thanks for being not the only mechanic to master the use of the “claw” hammer 😊

This one is a gem (for me)..the truck, the dog, the music..👍👍

I continue to be astounded at just how talented you are. Well done.on saving another great truck.

Hello, great videos, I'm pretty sure the oil cap in the center is a 261ci. The oil cap in front is a 235ci. Best wishes.

Good work and good find! I love these trucks so much. I'd keep her stock. Plenty of these 55-59's rolling around all restomodded. You rarely see one stock. P.S. This is a '59, badges are the most obvious clue, but somebody could've swapped a front clip. But the original interior paint with the fawn color on the inside proves it's a '59. '58 and before had a grey with charcoal accented interior. Then they kept that fawn color throughout the 60's.

:-) Thanks for the videos.

I wish I can get/have those white rims. They do fit on my 1993 Nissan truck (planning on getting a 1990-95 Nissan Pathfinder).

Not only will it run again, with your skills it will be the most bad ass Apache the Western Hemisphere has ever seen. Much respect for saving all these time capsules. ❤ you be the man😀

cracking job done again......always such a pleasure to watch these old cars back on the road....well done!!!

That view from above at the end is killer. I wouldn't change a thing other than fix the rust. Lowered with modern suspension would be a nice look, on any of your many small trucks. I am surprised that among your vast and ever growing collection there is no wrecker/tow truck.... yet.

Thank you Brent. You are an amazing man. Keep up the superb work.

the dog made the end of the video perfect thanks for bringing these old trucks to life

What a great truck love it.😃

Honestly I think its pretty cool stock. The Hot Rodder in me says V8 but I like the idea of keeping the six banger and 3 on the tree. I would do disks up front, a drop axle, and lower the rear a touch, as well as fix the rust lol. Then drive the wheels off it. I'm picking up a solid Dodge short box and am seriously thinking of leaving it a slant 6 and 3 speed. Too bad on mine they converted it to a floor shift though. - Jamie

I love to see the General rolling down the road...so cool!

I'M 65, and I remember my daddy had a Apache pickup when I was a kid. I learned to drive it in my grandmother's field. I still remember the foot starter.

Another amazing find, and a perfect fit, thanks Breant !!!!

That truck is really nice. Glad you got it. It's definitely worth saving. Thanks for the video 👍

You are an amazing talented guy. Your videos are very special. Your outro drone shots are the best yet!

I'd leave the 6 too. The small block thing has been beaten to death over the past 50 years. Dare to be different. Nice truck.

Cool truck, glad to see it running and driving. Thanks for showing us.

I think its sooo cool someone(you) takes on these rusted (seems it lived under 💦 water) gems and brings them back to life for its really shows every viewer what is possible, and what previous generations did to and with these rides), thank you. You Sir, turn lemons into lemonade every episode.

That truck is a nice find! I like your plans for it.

Nice find, fix the rust, small block with a 700r4, modern rearend and axel flip. Great inspiration for us all. Thanks for sharing, looking forward to the next phase.

Had a 58 short box back in the day!!! Drove it seven years, it was sweet. Would love to see yours lowered so I can dream of what might have been ( big sigh ) . You always amaze me with the straight forward way You approach each of your projects, you know what it is you want and carry it through, thanks for having me on board Stu from Ontario....

What an awesome find and nice that you had another motor! Looking forward to see what else you do with it!

The reason I found your channel was because I initially did a search on 1958 Chevy Apache revivals. Never looked back. Anything, and I mean A-NY-THING, you do on a 2nd half 1955 to 1959 Chevy/GMC truck will always have my attention. Your plan is exactly what I wish to execute with my project - I want to get her back on the road. After a variety of prior thoughts, you have me thinking once again that sourcing a 235 would be the easiest solution that would still allow me to enjoy the truck. Between the NAPCO series and this gem, I pretty much have a foolproof roadmap. If you have video, it would be very cool to see how you were able to troubleshoot the electricals and wiring on this Apache through your "Other Half" channel. All in all, this episode was just made for me. Thanks a whole heap!!!

Yeah I like leaving it stock as well and a 6 cylinder, nice to have one setting around, just in case someone wants to buy it. Another great video on brakes jobs, something I need to do to my '49 Ford Custom Coupe. I tell you it looked like Pablo had not been on a ride in decades, he was so happy to get in there and get going, he loves that stuff. Take care my friend

Keep it as is a true survivor. Upgrade rear end make it driver friendly. Love the patina. Great video Brent, thanks Mike

Brent, you got me grinning from ear to ear!!!! I'm enjoying the ride and your country's views, but I know, all too soon it'll be frigid and snowy...( Burrrrrrr). I also look forwards to your winter builds.... As far as the the ride height, meh, I'd leave it stock, SO, I know. I'm a party pooper.....As I always say Brent, your builds, build it your way, I KNOW,,,,, it'll look cool!!!!! You have some of the best scenery I've ever snagged my peepers on!!!!

Beautiful truck. Love the dash in those years. Good save. Another great video. Thanks for the content.

I love your approach and optimism. You are the best just dealing with things as they appear.

The short box step sides are on fire right now ...have been for a while . Nice to see you snagged one or two. My dad had a brand new 1960 Apache 30 tow truck. By all means lower with the drop front axel and lower the rear it'll look killer.

Great job … runs pretty good for what it is … maybe leave it stock and use it around the town rig

That's a great looking truck 👍👍🇨🇱

Good looking truck! Once again your drone shots are killer!!

Congratulations Brent on the successful running of the 58 . It sounded great. Those 7 cylinders will run forever. Thanks for sharing!

Brent and company come thru yet another time, it's running it's driving, it's alive!!!

I am such a fan of your channel! So relaxing watching you get these relics back on the road. Hearing your laugh of triumph after freeing a stuck engine or getting a rusty wheel cylinder rejuvenated makes me smile right along with you. And your fab skills are awesome too! The drive afterward with Pablo is tops (my wife loves that part too). Thanks for taking us along with all of your mechanical adventures!

I'm not a truck guy ... But I love the old Apache's ... That's a keeper right there.

Sounds like a great plan for this great little truck. In great shape for a snow-belt and salt on the road winters vehicle. Love the colour and the patina. Be safe and stay well.

That truck is worthy of a Brent Make-over. Definitely a keeper in your fleet (or sell it to me 😁).

Choice...Congratulations on your new find. Love it...

It’s so nice and original. Close to stock with taller gears would make such a great town cruiser.

Great looking truck in a killer color. Love it!😎👍

Look at you already have the next build you're a robot Brent no stopping you love it keep er going

Another successful ride ....saved from the scrap yard to enjoy its new life.... Breathing life into the old ..... Well ✔️ done... New Zealand 🇳🇿

Seeing you cleaning that cab makes me think that you would make a wonderful house wife

Definitely would love to see you fix it up. The Apache has always been one of my favorite

My first car was a 1958 Chevy pickup brings back memories of me and my Dad
