BODY OVERVIEW:
The 1958 Chevrolet Apache Cameo was one of the last iterations of Chevrolet’s luxury truck line, and this example is a standout! The fiberglass rear panels and elegant trim set the Cameo apart from standard pickups, and this one wears its unique styling with pride. The body is straight, well-aligned, and exhibits excellent panel fitment: a clear sign of a high-quality restoration. Kept tucked away in a private collection for over 30 years, it's no surprise this Cameo looks as good as it does!
PAINT CONDITION OVERVIEW:
Finished in a show-stopping two-tone Golden Yellow with black accents, this Apache Cameo demands attention wherever it goes. While the paint is not fresh, it retains deep gloss and rich color throughout. Both in photos and in person, it is very hard to believe that this is a paint job from the 20th century. There are some minor paint imperfections consistent with an older restoration, and a cracked chrome tail light bezel, but nothing that takes away from its curb appeal OR the overwhelming feel of a good restoration. Even the underside is finished to match!
INTERIOR CONDITION OVERVIEW:
Inside, this Cameo shines just as brightly! The cabin features a tasteful blend of black, yellow, and silver that complements the exterior beautifully. The seat, dash, and door panels are in excellent condition, showing minimal wear and excellent craftsmanship. Everything presents cleanly, with attention to both originality and style.
MECHANICAL OVERVIEW:
Under the hood lies a 283ci V8 mated to a 3-speed column-shift manual transmission. The drivetrain feels confident and smooth, and the single exhaust gives off that classic, mellow V8 tone that would’ve been the Chevrolet signature at the time. While this truck was built to be driven—not to win concours points—the mechanicals are clean, give a nod to the original design, and ready for the road. It starts easily, runs strong, and shifts just the way you remember if you’ve ever driven a classic column-shifter Chevy.
WHAT YOU’LL LOVE ABOUT THIS CAR:
• Rare and stylish Apache Cameo with unmistakable lines and styling
• Striking two-tone color combo with matching underside
• Restored with a clear focus on both presentation and usability
• Column-shifted V8 fun with just the right amount of old-school charm
• Great for cruising, collecting, or taking to the next level!
WHAT YOU MIGHT HATE ABOUT THIS CAR:
• Some minor cosmetic flaws from age, including cracked tail light trim
• Not a 100-point restoration if you’re a factory-correct purist–this was built to be a top-shelf driver
• Manual transmission and lack of power accessories may not suit those looking for modern convenience
DOES IT NEED ANYTHING?
• A replacement tail light bezel, if trying to get closer to perfection
• Some gauges are not operational, nor is the radio or the reverse lights
WHAT BUYER IS LOOKING FOR THIS CAR?
This truck is ideal for the classic enthusiast who appreciates a restored, usable vehicle with standout vintage style that hasn’t been restored to death (but seriously, this is a super nice truck!). Whether you’re looking for a rare classic that will turn heads at local shows, or a nostalgic driver to enjoy for yourself on weekends, this Apache Cameo offers the perfect blend of elegance, functionality, and old-school cool. A gentleman’s pickup in every sense—this one is ready for a new garage and a new chapter!
