The Appeal
It’s hard to think of a more quintessentially American vehicle than a Chevy truck and they don’t come better than this. The big ‘59 Apache is a formidable vehicle and this one has been fully restored throughout before it was imported into the UK. The condition of it really is exceptional throughout and is ready to show (and win!).
The 3900cc V8 engine sounds fantastic through the twin exhausts and coupled with the truck's good looks, finished in Cyber Gray, it’s a vehicle that doesn’t attract attention, it demands it. As can be seen in the images it has been extensively restored and many aftermarket upgrades have been fitted whilst keeping to the original feel of the truck.
If you’re looking for the ultimate American car, look no further, this is it.
The History and Paperwork
- First UK registered in 2021
- Tax and MOT exempt
- V5 Present and correct
- A large selection of invoices from the restoration of the truck in the USA
The Interior
- Excellent condition throughout
- Fully retrimmed in satin black leather
- Gorgeous 50’s styling
- Refurbished/rebuilt gauges
The Apache was the first truck to feature a wrap-around windscreen and when you climb up onto the bench seat in the cab of this ‘59 Apache you can see why they wentt for that design. The cab feels open and spacious with excellent visibility that really allows for a great driving experience from the commanding elevated position.
The interior has been completely restored with the door cards, headlining, seat and trim all presenting excellently with little to no signs of wear. The dashboard looks fantastic, with its distinctive 50’s American styling and big Chevrolet steering wheel it provides a driving experience completely unlike that of any of its European counterparts. The dashboard is finished in the same dark metallic grey as the exterior and all of the switchgear and gauges present excellently with lots of chrome in the same excellent condition.
The Exterior
- Full body-off restoration
- Finished in metallic Cyber Gray with clear coat
- Excellent condition throughout
- Distinctive 50’s styling
- Extensive brightwork all in fantastic condition
This Apache is a fantastic looking truck and is particularly eye-catching driving around our little English roads where it really stands out. The dark metallic grey matches the bold 50’s styling perfectly and is complemented by a mass of brightwork, all of which combines to make an excellent looking vehicle that attracts attention wherever it goes.
The extensive brightwork is all in excellent condition and the wheels are also excellent with all flour tyres having full tread. The dark metallic grey paintwork looks fantastic and thanks to the truck having covered so few miles since the restoration it is in fantastic condition. All of the light lenses and trim present in the same excellent condition and the bed has been fitted with a Mar-K light oak bed with stainless steel runners, that looks simply fantastic. The whole overall appearance of the truck is exceptional and it would make a fine vehicle for shows.
The Mechanics
- We are informed that the truck has had the following done as part of the restoration:

- 2½” exhaust

As with all of the other aspects of this truck, the mechanical elements present excellently. The engine, engine bay and undersides all present immaculately showing no signs of wear that we could see. The big V8 starts easily and sounds phenomenal through the twin pipe exhaust, as with the aesthetics of this truck, the sound it makes isn’t subtle!
The current owner informs us that it drives exactly as it should, which given the extensive restoration isn’t surprising. The big V8 coupled to the 3 speed hurst shifter and close ratio box make this bit of a monster off the line, giving this truck the performance to match its looks.
Summary
This truck makes a big impression in every way; with its stand-out 50’s styling, its exceptional condition and the fantastic V8 with the associated sound. Fully restored to an exceptionally high standard, it’s ready to show or drive.

Come funzionano le offerte massime
Il processo di offerta massima ti permette di fare offerte senza preoccupazioni.
Inserisci la tua offerta massima e il sistema farà offerte automaticamente per assicurarsi che tu sia il miglior offerente - fino all'ammontare da te stabilito come tetto massimo.
Anti-sniping
Car & Classic contrasta il fenomeno dello “sniping”, ovvero il fenomeno dei rilanci all'ultimo secondo per vincere l'asta.
Se viene fatta un'offerta nei 3 minuti prima della chiusura dell'asta, la scadenza di questa viene automaticamente estesa di 2 minuti per permettere agli altri offerenti di reagire e, se lo desiderano, di rilanciare.
Incrementi di offerta automatica
- Se la sua offerta massima è uguale o inferiore al prezzo di riserva, la sua offerta massima sarà applicata per intero se lei è il miglior offerente.
- Se siete il miglior offerente e fate un'offerta massima superiore a quella di riserva, la riserva verrà automaticamente inserita come prima offerta.
-
- Una volta raggiunta la riserva, Car & Classic si assicurerà che tu sia il miglior offerente utilizzando solo gli incrementi di offerta indicati di seguito.
- Vi terremo in testa fino alla vostra offerta massima O all'incremento più vicino alla vostra offerta massima, a condizione che la vostra offerta massima sia sufficiente a coprire il valore dell'incremento.
| Ammontare dell'offerta | Incremento |
|---|---|
| Da £0 a £9,999 | £100.00 |
| Da £10,000 a £49,999 | £250.00 |
| Da £50,000 a £99,999 | £500.00 |
| £100,000 + | £1,000.00 |
Superamento immediato dell'offerta
Quando piazzi un'offerta massima e questa viene immediatamente superata, questo significa che un altro offerente ha impostato una soglia di offerta massima superiore alla tua.
Puoi fare nuovamente un'offerta o impostare una soglia più alta di offerta massima e il nostro sistema rilancerà fino alla nuova soglia, cercando di portarti a essere il miglior offerente.
Offerte massime di pari ammontare
Quando ci sono due offerte massime di pari ammontare, quella impostata per prima è quella che viene considerata “migliore offerta”.
Pre-autorizzazione
Potremmo trattenere un piccolo importo di pre-autorizzazione sulla tua carta fino alla fine dell'asta, quando quest'ultimo verrà poi stornato. Se vinci, verrà prelevata una caparra che verrà detratta dal pagamento del prezzo di vendita per il veicolo e non comporta costi aggiuntivi per te.
Cosa sono le Offerte pre-asta?
Offerte pre-asta significa che avete la possibilità di fare offerte prima dell'inizio ufficiale dell'asta.
Verrà comunicato se si è il miglior offerente o meno all'inizio dell'asta.
Problema con l'offerta
Le offerte sono contrattualmente vincolanti. Per tutelare l'utente, sono previste alcune regole nel caso in cui si ritenga che sia stato digitato in modo errato. Si prega di controllare e modificare quanto inserito.
