A successor to the Chevy Cameo, the Chevy Apache was produced from 1958 to 1959. Sharing some similarities with the Chevy Cameo, the Chevy Apache has that old-school style with rounded edges, quadruple headlights, and spacious interiors reminiscent of passenger cars. However, the engine specifications remained consistent since the Chevy Apache was only produced over two years. The Apache typically contains the Chevrolet 235 Thriftmaster V-6 engine that can produce up to 145 horsepower, though there were different, specialized, and rare iterations available, with one version sporting a V-8 engine.
Although not as peppy or strong as other discontinued Chevys, the Apache is one of its most famous vehicles. Speaking with KCET, Chevy Apache enthusiast Wes Thurston said, “It was the truck for working people, and they made it easy to work on the engine. All you need is wrenches. Now you have computers, and you have to take a truck in for every little thing.” As another truck designed to be rugged and easy to understand and repair, the Chevy Apache has long been a part of Americana and would be welcomed back with open arms.
