It's in the Blood! - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Sunday my youngest daughter overheard my Nephew offering to sell the 58 Apache I sold him back. I struggled with myself and told him I would let him know. She is trying to buy it now. I am disappointed that he took out the crate 350 and put a 283 in it. It sounds like I may be real busy for a while.

That is a good kind of busy. I enjoy the time with my daughter that we spend together while working on hers.

I'm very excited for her. She's called me twice about it and I told her I hadn't seen it for 5 years so I have No idea what shape it's in. But for what we can buy it for I told her we could get it ready to drive pretty easy.

Cool, I hope that it is still in the shape that she expects it to be in. I'm another who doesn't quite comprehend the thinking behind pulling out a great running 350 to replace it with one of those "cool" 283's but I'll bet that someone sold him a bill of goods and traded the 283 for it.

Daughter called tonight and informed me she is getting pics and write up sent to her. I guess we might be taking a Road Trip to get up close and personal with my old 58. She also asked me "What is that steering stuff you have behind the garage?". I laughed and said it's a Camaro clip, then she wanted to know if it would fit on her truck.

Will she be joining us here on the forums ? We could use some more ladies onboard.

I don't know, she works in a Financial Firm and is on the computer all day so I may have to force her into it. It wouldn't be a good idea if she see's some of these builds because it would be more work and money from my side of it.

If she ever joins we'll be sure to flood her with plenty of ideas to keep you very very busy
