    Sissell Heads specializes in Chevy inline 6 cylinder heads, He has some stuff he can do to an iron head to improve performance, and I use the same cam grinder as he does, so can get you set up with the correct camshaft.

    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,

    I am in Jamul, CA. About 30 min to the border. The guy that does my body work is the nephew of a good friend. He did a 68 Camaro for me years ago. He does outstanding work. If you look in the original pic that I posted. The rear fender has a big dent in it. The fender in the pic above is that fender. Also, if you look at the firewall in the pic before prime. I had him weld all of the holes up except the 3 that I need. You can not tell they were ever there.

    He always tells me to bring him business, so if you are interested shoot me a PM. This truck had a lot of body work This was a ranch truck that was beat up. He charged me 3k for everything.

    The 3k is for the body resto and putting it in primer right??? Not the paint work???

    How hard is it to get the stuff across the border, what is the paperwork/customs process???
