I recently picked up a 59 Apache Fleetside and had some questions for you experts. It was a CA original owner (family) truck.

Pull off a trim piece, like the headlight or taillight ring, and see what is under it. The firewall is also painted body color so what is that color? Look behind the inner fenders, you should see the original color. If it is a cheapo repaint I doubt they blew it apart to paint it. Should be fairly easy to find the original color. Post some pics. Is it long or short? Mike
