1958 Chevrolet 3100 Apache 1/2 ton

short bed step side truck

How not to buy an old pickup that is in great shape.  ** don't buy that vehicle on eBay for a great price **

However, I like the truck I bought and will likely put a lot on money into it.

Of course, a better idea is buy a totally restored vehicle.  Odds are that you will not be able to restore a truck for cheaper than the market value of a completely restored old truck.
