chevrolet 1960 apache 20

[hemsbycoupe]

hi folks,
i have just joined your foram to try and gain some info on this unusual c20 truck that i am altering /repairing over in hemsby, england.
Its on paper a apache 20, or maybe c20 7500lbs model with torsion bar front suspension. I have not been about to find many of this type of chevy anywhere, was this a small run vehicle.
I am in the process of removing the front bed to install a lighter c10 (cira 1970),mainly because the wheel bearing are all u/s and also i would like disc front end, hopefully this will also give a better ride.
any info on this model would be handy, i wil post some pictures asap so that you can all see what a rotten truck i started with, and how i have progressed to date,
thanks,
shaun

Hi Shaun, welcome to the forum. I'm not too familiar with the C20. Posting some pictures will probably help get some good responses.

Changing to a '71-'87 front suspension is a very common upgrade to the '60-'66 trucks. You may find the 60-66 FAQ Index helpful in rebuilding your truck. Of course we are always here to answer your questions.
