1958 Chevrolet Apache Dream Comes True

PHARR OUT

BACK IN 1962, JACKIE MOORE ORIGINALLY PURCHASED THIS ’58 APACHE PICKUP TO USE ON THE FAMILY FARM. It served its purpose well as transportation and farm hauler for many years, and after decades of service, it was finally retired. Moore left it to languish under the shade of a tree near the chicken coop, as many farmers do with their used tools of the trade.

At an early age Jared Pharr discovered an attraction to Grandpa Moore’s “Task Force” era truck. The curved lines of the fenders and dual headlights sparked a flame in the young man’s heart. He shared his vision with his grandfather in hopes that it would someday be a reality. Before his passing, Grandpa Moore gave the truck to Jared. It would sit for years before its light would shine again.

It wasn’t until Jared’s brother-in-law Alex Huggins opened Hub City Fab, a restoration and fabrication shop in Idalou, Texas, that the potential for a boy’s dream might come true. The two worked together to formulate a plan that included a tribute to the GM designers’ styling that had intrigued the young man so many years ago. The build would also incorporate contemporary components from the top suppliers in the classic truck industry.

The original frame was retained on “Pharr Out 58,” but nothing was left untouched. The front suspension was updated with a Porterbuilt Fabrication Level 3 kit, along with a pair of Ridetech coilovers. Wilwood 14-inch rotors were mounted on Classic Performance Parts spindles and topped off with Wilwood 6-piston calipers.
