1959 Chevrolet Apache 32 in Addison, TX

Written by Ken Altes

Shopping for my new car near the Addison airport, just north of Dallas, at a bunch of small, independent dealers specializing in off-lease cars. I passed by this stunning Chevy Apache pickup, and had to circle back to get these pictures. Turns out that this outfit, Twenty First Century Muscle Cars, was started in 2002 by John Page and Kerri Lingenfelter, daughter of legendary performance guru, John Lingenfelter, providing performance parts for Corvettes, Camaros, Cadillacs as well as Ford GTs and Dodge Vipers. They also have a handful of remarkable cars for sale. In any case, this is a great truck. 1959-chevrolet-apache-32-atxcarpics-com-addison-texas 1959-chevrolet-apache-32-atxcarpics-com-front-view 1959-chevrolet-apache-32-atxcarpics-com-interior1959-chevrolet-apache-32-atxcarpics-com-detail1959-chevrolet-apache-32-atxcarpics-com-bed 1959-chevrolet-apache-32-atxcarpics-com-21st-century

Maurice Hall sent in these excellent pictures of a rare car, a 1958 Buick Special sitting untouched for two decades in Hempstead, TX.  Maurice asked if the car was for sale but was disappointed with the answer.
