That old Apache would look badass with some black chrome oversized Chevy Rally wheels and the bed floor finished in a transparent light blue epoxy over flame scorched bandsaw cut white Ash plank for the bed wood with black chrome binding rails and a old faded Hookers Headers sticker on the back window or the Thrush bird
its so awesome to see mike getting all the recognition he deserves. he used to be a part of my old VW group out of Murfreesboro TN. super chill guy and really knows his stuff!
Merry Christmas Rich. On this truck 5.7L/7.4L check the purple wire at the starter motor. These had a habit of rubbing through the (+) battery cable. This causes the starter to engage while the truck sits, and you swear someone is stealing it at 0300a. had this happen to two of my trucks. The cure is to repair the damaged wire or insulate it to prevent it from happening.
@@om617yota8 Yep, my one ton 7.4 did this and so did my 1500. Purple wire on my 7.4 rotted with the main cable due to heat. Same with my 5.7. Very oddly it happens when cold. Your engine just starts to crank. The first time it happened, I called the police thinking someone was stealing my truck. It was a big laugh when.police showed up and saw the issue. Said my truck was haunted, Lol.
I admire the amount of hard work and dedication for a life that lead you to living your dream and making it a successful income for you and your family all the while brining joy to thousands of people across the world through your TH-cam channel. Merry Christmas Rich and the rest of the Deboss family!
Where I live, a Silverado that nice would easily cost double what you paid for it, and everything you did to that truck combined. I want your "serious financial trouble" shirt, but I'm so dam deep in debt that I can't afford to buy one, and BTW, I wear a 3X. 😂🤣 A really great source of not only parts for your 55 Chevy, including a hood and glass, but also information about it, would be Rick from TH-cam channel "Classic Truck Rescue". Best part of contacting him, is that he's not far from where you're working on this truck, he lives in Oregon, and I know that he's always glad to ship parts to his customers. Great video!!! I can't wait to see this old beast back on the road!!!
Awesome quick pic in front of that old Lo-Gas station with the 'EAT" sign and diner. I painted that place with acrylics after I took a pic 5 years back or so. I have a '55 short box I'm going to be paying off sooner than later. Looks about the same too! lol.
Would love to see a Mercedes diesel in that Silverado, but I would do a om648 I6 common rail. Basically the om606 big brother. Not as many have used in swap (at least in the States) since it requires a computer, but I'm sure you could figure that out.
@@DEBOSSGARAGE nice! I feel like a lot of people feel that way! And Rich said they just werent the same in the gmt900 because they were going through a bankruptcy at the time. Still love the content and glad the channel has grown so much since the under 10k subs when i joined! Thanks for all the hard work Aaron!
Apache project looks like fun. Would have preferred to see you restore it back to factory. I rewired a 59 apache earlier this year. Fun working on the old trucks.
I turned 16 in 2004 and I bought my first truck for $5,000. It was a 1995 Silverado Z71 with the 5.7L. I’m 34 now and I’ve owned many trucks since then and to this day, that was my favorite truck. Thanks for the trip down memory lane.
Definitely put an om606 in something smaller than the k2500. The 606 would move it no problem but it would defeat the purpose taking that diesel that can make good power and watching it all get robbed by weight. Also, look into older merc diesels. Like the 3.5L om603, or the 3L om617 5 cylinder. Those are great engines, purely mechanical unlike the 606
I've never seen one of those working trouble lights, at least not beyond the vehicle being a few years old in the rusty north. either the bulbs were always smoked or the contacts in the reel part. they were a great thought. lol
Wow ...$400 USD for a Ford 9 ...I bought three axles from a wrecking yard in Hunstsville ON back in the days when I raced my '87 GN..one of the axles was a Ford nodular iron 9 inch, other 2 were GM 12 bolts .paid around 200 bucks cdn back then for all three. And wowzer on the Chebby Pickup ..owned a '59 Apache Fleetside inline 6 turbo hydro trans all white version bought in Victoria BC in '72. One darling of a truck ...miss her a lot.
What cool episode! Merry Christmas! Stay safe and warm. I agree though on the "trouble light". They should have marketed it as a maintenance light instead. And have the commercial showing the person using the light to check the oil at night and checking tire pressures at night. Call it a maintenance light instead and the perception changes.
thats a really nice 1995 gmt400 clean and rust free! those trucks to my mind are the best gm/chev trucks ever made but i like the 88-94 tbi generation better. would love to get a clean one like that
5,000 miles is a long ways to drive anything! Doing so in a vintage rig even with newer running gear is going to be a challenge, but a fun one to be sure.
I had a white '99 single cab long box just like your original one too.. 2500, manual though. Got to be a bit much on my left knee moving stuff around the city through traffic, wish I'd never gotten rid of it.
PA salt guy here. I am super jealous of the rot free trucks. Everything I've ever worked on has been rusted, rotted, and seized together. Amazing find.
When I was a little kid my father had a 1957; pretty much the same except for the grille. Back then (about 1971 or 1972) it had massive rust holes in the floorboards and the fenders were gone above the headlights. In the snowy/road-salted northeast 1955-1959 "Task Force/Blue Chip" GM trucks are all gone, except for a few museum pieces that were used somewhere else.
Nice restore project. You get to enjoy that warm weather. A Camaro front clip, now that's major surgery. Will look forward to videos on this. Stance work lent you there garage. Hope you brought some Canadian beer along. Hugh Mc. Chicago, metro
People say day one upgrade is wheels, tires, and usually cutting the exhaust off. But no the first upgrade you can do is taking out the damn key in buzzer
Update, after a little research. in 1955, The three V-8 engine options were big news for Chevy truck buyers. Customers who wanted more grunt than the 109-hp inline six provided could opt for 265-cid V-8s with 126, 162 or 180 hp. Equipped with the six, the 3100 pickups weighed in at 3,210 lbs
I really really love those 90’s Chevy trucks my dad had a 95 Chevy Silverado extended cab black truck and we have a 92 Chevy 6.5 turbo diesel single cab dually blue and gray two tone with a pin stripe
In Ontario you don't find stuff from 2000 that is fixable, in Manitoba the stuff from 2000 is still on the road, slowly dyeing off. the stuff from the 90s is the stuff that is more rust then vehicle

GMT 400 is by far my favorite platform. Good looking obs Chevy
U can take the Canadian to California but u can’t take the flannel off the Canadian! 🤣
We wear flannels down here also very common
😂😂
😂
Well, you can .. but it requires a LOT of Molson Canadian and a few jugs of Maple Syrup!
@@paulcooper2897sounds kinky.
Om606? Hell ya!
The Apache holds a special place in my heart. I helped rebuild a '46 with a guy who was like a Grandfather to me.
👀👀👀👀potential om606 content… ooooh yes
GMT400 and GMT800 are simply the best trucks, they feel like home inside the cab.
Merry Christmas to you and the family Rich!

We do have an OM606 without a home....
WOW!!! BEAUTIFUL 55!!
Om606 build would be so badass, don't know how well it works in a truck but would still be insane!!!
Nice to see Rich's private jet make it into an episode.
Surprised he took the little one out though 🎄
I really enjoy watching collaborations, looking forward to this project! Keep up the great content .
Daaaang that white Chev is mint! 😳😳 that 55 is mint too! 😮
Damn right it needs an OM606 with an 8mm pump Rich
🤮
We have one in the shop
Love it! Deboss needs to have an in person car show in 2023!!
we will be at motorama in Toronto March 10th-12th
Good to see a Chevy on the channel again... Really good looking GMT400!
I loved this style. when they came out with the next gen, I instantly fell in love with it too. after 2007, never felt like that again.

that 95 is pretty sweet. some of my favorite trucks. maintain them like you should and they will go for a long time

Looks like a 283 or a 327 in that 59, both great engines for that truck. Maybe even a 307 now that I think about it, HARD TO TELL.
Derrick would throw some gas down the carb and drive it home🤣🤣 I busted laughing at that because it's so true
My all time favourite vehicle. The 58/59 with the double lights are so rad. Super pumped for the series!
I've never seen one of those working trouble lights, at least not beyond the vehicle being a few years old in the rusty north. either the bulbs were always smoked or the contacts in the reel part.
they were a great thought. lol
Opens with a "Swoop Airlines" shot... Yup, These guys are rolling in dough and living the high life. 🤣🤣🤣
It's $80 to fly from Hamilton to Vegas in a direct flight. Which is why we bought our own truck and will fly in and out of Vegas everytime

Derek would have got this back to Tennessee already! Nice work Rich!
I plan to enjoy it for years and share it with everyone helping out on the build. In doing so, it needs a couple hundred hours of labor.
Merry Christmas! New Deboss Garage video!
Gmt400s. 88-98 just look so damn good lifted or lowered. Had the pleasure to own 4 of them .
I've got a few of those under hood lights .. they are great additions to snowmobiles and quads as well for midnight trail repairs.
Those trucks are so timeless 👍
Welcome to the West Coast we don't salt our roads in the winter time ❤️❤️🙏🏼🙏🏼
Can't say how excited I am about the gmt400 on this one
Man, hearing that damn door buzzer brought back a lot of memories from my old truck, one day she will get rebuilt.
I have a box of those trouble lights in the garage I snag them out of the junkyard every time I can
Same year i was born great year for trucks
The battery tray is intact is very impressive. Relocate the battery in the tool box, battery tray good location for the ecu
Om606 for the win!!!!!
Open scene, exit row window seat. Noice😊 doesn’t get much better
People say day one upgrade is wheels, tires, and usually cutting the exhaust off. But no the first upgrade you can do is taking out the damn key in buzzer
606 would be awesome really looking forward to those videos
man, the sticker on that front tire was a survivor.
I love how Rich puts 15-w40 in everything lol that truck will probably have some decent oil pressure now
The guys from Dirt Cinema are younger more mechanically adept stunt doubles for Rob Warner.
Awesome project!
Great videos keep them coming. Merry Christmas 🎄☃️
Thanks for sharing merry Christmas
Great collab! Different ends of the spectrum but, I suspect that’s why it’ll work!?
Flew swoop and actually made it? I’m surprised hahah
Merry Christmas Rich, Aaron and families. ❤️
OM606 I think yes!!!
Merry Christmas sir. Keep up the great work everyone on staff 👍👍👍🎅🏼🎅🏼🎅🏼

When u are back I’ll buy it off u lol I love that truck
Not gonna lie, the underhood retractable light blew my mind

A Christmas episode of Deboss with a VGG shoutout, I’ll be dipped!
Marry Christmas from Star City Saskatchewan 🇨🇦
That old truck reminds me of my 55 1/2 GMC 5 window 4 speed automatic straight 6
Mine is in mint shape
It's likely a 327 or 283 given the valley air breather. Possibly a very early 350 but more likely an older 327.
My 97 savanna had the trouble light and it was super handy. V
Merry Christmas from waterdown Ontario
Hate to be nitpicking but that is not an Apache, Chevrolet only used the Apache name from ‘58-‘61. That truck is a ‘55 Chevrolet 3200.
