I think I scored ¿

[nail pounder]

New guy here, I've been part of the 60-66 forum(I have a 66) for awhile but I found something I couldn't pass up. The ad read 58 truck, 4000$ obo. After after few emails I was planning to see a 58 Apache longbed, small window. The lady was super nice, around 60yrs old. Her dad bought the truck new, parked it in during the 70's gas crisis, but then it sat untill he passed away in '95 leaving it to his daughter. She apparently put in in storage for 15 years and then brought to her home with the intention of fixing it up. I believe she had a friend work on it, but never quite got what she paid for out of him I did notice a new master brake cylinder/booster under the driver side cab? They work fine but I dunno how to check the fluid? I've never seen that but then again, I've only worked on my 66. Short story long, I told her how my daughter and I restored the 66 and wanted another project. She loved the father daughter idea and said 3500$ and take it before I change my mind. She's not sure of the mileage, it says 29568, but thinks that's the original milage. She gave me the original owners manual and some items she had, weather strip, felt for windows etc. The engine is clean for a 58 yr old truck, but I'd like to hear any feedback, and I'm sure I'll be asking alot of stupid questions. 235 I6 purrs like a kitten, 3 speed on the column is OK, after some PB blaster on the linkage, reverse and 2nd are finicky. Some surface rust and a couple dents but nothing major. Anyhow, on to some pics!
