Air ride problems? Need modern power steering or brakes? We can find the updated car for you or do the work ourselves. Check out the Anderson/Aquatech Surfboard Mercury that we did the air ride on, fixed the brakes, and other work on.

Our shop is equipped to handle projects large and small.
At Sakowski Motors we pride ourselves on quality workmanship and accurate descriptions of the vehicles in our inventory.
53 Chevy pickup work in progress. Frame boxed and firewall welded smooth.
53 Chevy project continues…Fatman Mustang II installed, independent suspension, 12″ power disc brakes, power rack, and pinion etc.
54 Chevy Convertible. Smoothed firewall and pockets put in the firewall for the engine, Mustang II front end.
Check out the steering linkage. It has to route between the frame and the exhaust manifolds. A very tight fit for an Olds 455 Big Block. Smooth steering on super strong in-house fabricated brackets with Borgeson’s joints. Check out the fabricated plate that holds the steering column flush to the firewall. Rock solid and no gaps for hot air to enter the driver compartment!
Handmade hammered-out pieces. The bullet attaches to the steering column and holds a tach. It has been “raised” on a stake from a single flat piece of nickel. The disc is handmade also and is a steering wheel center.
Premises guarded by a vicious dog.
