    Sissell does some fantastic stuff with inliners way over the top .

    Well it has been more than a year. We have been working on the truck. Not as fast as we would like, as work gets in the way of fun some times.



    Body is off and in Tecate Mx to fix all of the dents and rust.

    Frame was stripped to bare metal and we used POR15 on it.



    We got a donor truck. A 78 silverado and put the front end on it. This gives us disc brakes, rubber bushings and power steering. We put all new bushing, ball joints and tie rods in it.



    Went down to MX to check progress,

    No not 4x4. Those front springs are from the 78 I used as a donor truck. I put 3" lowering springs on the rear and i am waiting until I get the motor and trans in before I drop the front so that i know exactly how much to drop it.Right now it looks like I need to drop it 6-7 inches but will probably be more like 5 when all of the weight is in it.
