“It’s not everyday that someone takes a vehicle originally designed to haul farm equipment, and instead, make it haul some serious ass”

The words of drive channel’s Mike Musto, so you know that the 1959 Chevrolet Apache pick-up truck he’s referring to is going to be on the bright side of awesome. The Apache was never designed to hold the road, corner like it was on rails, and keep pace with the Porsche 911s of this world.

And that was just the start…
